This attribute is store-view scoped and is intended for content that should appear below the product listing on category pages. Features -------- [](#features) - Adds a `bottom_description` category attribute. - Uses Magento's admin WYSIWYG editor. - Enables HTML output and Page Builder compatibility. - Includes an optional ready-to-use category layout handle. - Ships as a Composer-ready Magento 2 module. - Supports modern Magento 2.4 installations. Usage ----- [](#usage) After installation: 1. Go to `Catalog > Categories` in the Magento admin. 2. Open any category. 3. Find the **Bottom Description** field in the **Content** section. 4. Save the category. To render the content on the storefront, output the category attribute in your theme or custom module, for example via the current category model: ``` $bottomDescription = $currentCategory->getData('bottom_description'); ``` This package also includes a reusable example template at `view/frontend/templates/category/bottom_description.phtml` and a supporting block class at `Block/Category/BottomDescription.php`. The module also ships with `view/frontend/layout/catalog_category_view.xml`, so the bottom description is rendered automatically on category pages after installation. ### Example storefront integration [](#example-storefront-integration) If you want to override the built-in placement in your theme or custom module layout, add a block like this to `catalog_category_view.xml`: ``` ``` The included template renders the attribute only when the category has content, so it is safe to add globally. ### Disable or override the default layout [](#disable-or-override-the-default-layout) - Remove the module block in your custom theme layout if you want full control over placement. - Reuse the included template `MageMatch_CategoryBottomDescription::category/bottom_description.phtml` in your own block or container. - Override `view/frontend/layout/catalog_category_view.xml` in your theme if you want to move the output elsewhere on category pages. Module Structure ---------------- [](#module-structure) - `.github/workflows/ci.yml` runs Composer metadata, PHP lint, and XML validation in GitHub Actions. - `CHANGELOG.md` tracks public release changes. - `.gitignore` keeps repository noise out of version control. - `LICENSE` contains the MIT license for public distribution. - `Block/Category/BottomDescription.php` provides the current category and rendered bottom description. - `RELEASE_CHECKLIST.md` provides a quick publish checklist for GitHub releases. - `registration.php` registers the module. - `etc/module.xml` declares the Magento module. - `Setup/CategorySetupFactory.php` provides a setup factory used by the data patch. - `Setup/Patch/Data/AddBottomDescriptionCategoryAttribute.php` creates or updates the category attribute. - `view/frontend/layout/catalog_category_view.xml` renders the block automatically on category pages. - `view/adminhtml/ui_component/category_form.xml` adds the admin form field. - `view/frontend/templates/category/bottom_description.phtml` contains the storefront rendering example. Notes ----- [](#notes) - Storefront placement remains theme-controlled, but the module now ships with a ready-to-use example block and template. - If you are replacing an older custom module that used the same attribute code, existing attribute data can still be reused. Release Workflow ---------------- [](#release-workflow) For a first public GitHub release, a simple flow is: ``` git init git add . git commit -m "Initial public release" git tag -a v1.0.0 -m "Version 1.0.0" ``` If this module lives inside a larger Magento project today, copy `app/code/MageMatch/CategoryBottomDescription` into its own repository root before running the commands above. CI -- [](#ci) This repository includes `.github/workflows/ci.yml` for a lightweight public CI pipeline. It validates: - Composer package metadata. - PHP syntax across the module. - XML well-formedness for Magento config, UI, and layout files. Before each release, use `RELEASE_CHECKLIST.md` to verify the package is ready to publish. --- Installation ------------ [](#installation) ``` composer require magematch/module-category-bottom-description bin/magento module:enable MageMatch_CategoryBottomDescription bin/magento setup:upgrade bin/magento cache:clean ``` Compatibility ------------- [](#compatibility) - Magento Open Source 2.4.x - Adobe Commerce 2.4.x - PHP 8.1, 8.2, 8.3 Support & Custom Development -------------------------------- [](#support--custom-development) Need custom Magento development?
