Categories - Content settings
The Content settings determine any additional content appears on the category page. In addition to the list of category products, the page can include an image, description, and CMSÂ block. You can use the Page Builder content tools to define the category description.
Add the category description in Page Builder
-
Open the category in edit mode.
-
Scroll down and expand

At the top right of the Description area, click Edit with Page Builder.
-
Use the Page Builder content tools to edit any existing text and add other content (if needed).
Page Builder preview
When you expand the Content section for an existing category where there is content created with Page Builder, it displays a preview of the Description content as it would appear in the category page. Clicking the content area opens the Page Builder workspace, where you can make any needed updates.
This content preview is enabled for the product and category forms by default. If performance suffers due to loading the preview, you can disable the preview in the Content Management configuration settings.
Add the category description in the editor
Enter only plain ASCII characters into the text box. If pasting text from a word processor, save it first as a plain .TXT file to remove any invisible control characters.
