where do i have to do changes to category page layout

Hi @chefwildboar,

From what I can see, the /our-recipes/ page is listing out the recipes using the Recipe plugin’s functionality. Therefore, in order to achieve the same look on the categories page, a lot of custom coding would be necessary, editing the entire archive template (archive.php). You can try editing it with some custom CSS, though, but you won’t be able to add all the information that the plugin is displaying.

Regarding displaying the subcategories, I’m afraid there is no out-of-the-box solution for this, either.

HI @gdalex

Yes, i know that coding is a must for what i want, i have already created a category.php file and edit. (i am a little rusty have not coded in 10 years)

A about the subcategories i have been able to list all categories but some how i am unable to get the string for all child categories id correctly so that i can set it in the shortcode i use to display the categories

rezept category

always cooking
immer beim kochen
sempre a cozinhar
