something like this? https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/list-wordpress-categories-with-cat-descriptions?replies=4

Yes exactly thanks. So I’m currently using this piece of code:

How do I strip it down to only displaying the child themes of for example id=4

And another thing, how do I display the categories horizontal.. Can you even do that with get categories..

change this:

$categories = get_categories();

to:

$categories = get_categories(child_of=4);

And another thing, how do I display the categories horizontal

And the descriptions also horizontal?

Thanks, that doesn’t work though. Cant load the site if I change it to (child_of=4), it definitely screws with something..

Yeah I want to display the categories and their descriptions like this: https://cl.ly/0c2J3U3T2T2W3j1B3F0v

sorry, this:

$categories = get_categories('child_of=4');

Ah, great. Thank you very much. Do you have any idea how I can accomplish the layout I linked, https://cl.ly/0c2J3U3T2T2W3j1B3F0v.
