I am trying to get the term description to appear on the term page. Taxo_context is enabled, term and sub term display is also enabled and a vocabulary has been chosen. The description still refuses to show.

I have tested in IE also to rule out a browser issue, emptied the drupal cache, but to no avail.

Any suggestions?

Update: Suspected as much. It's a theme issue. Term description shows in all themes (Democratica, Bluemarine, Pushbutton, Marvin and Chameleon) except Civicspace.

I am flagging it here in case anyone else faces the same problem.

I'm using my own custom PHPTemplate theme with 4.6.5 and it doesn't work. Did you manage to find out what was causing it?

Thanks.

This PHPTemplate file in your themes directory has to have the code for displaying the term description. Ramdak's apparently didn't have that code.

Well for me nothing shows, not even breadcrumbs, when using my own custom theme.

What code are you refering to?

All you need...

    <?php if ($help != ""): ?>
      <p id="help"><?php print $help; ?></p>
    <?php endif; ?>

Put it above $content and below your tabs and breadcrumb.

Didn't help me. Even if I enable everything and just put print $help; I don't get a description (or anything else, but I don't use hierarchies). Is it working for anyone?
I'm using 4.7.2
