adding description and and image to categories and tags

[discipolo]

what would be the best way to add a block to the autogenerated tag and category pages, and where to put the category description text?

The category description text is a tricky one. There isn't a very good way to do that yet. One thing you could consider is to add it to the global site meta data. For example:

categories:
    products:
        description: "This is the products description block for the product category."
    services:
        description: "Here we can describe the services category.

... then in category.html, you could do something like:

<div class="category-description">{{ site.categories[page.category].description }}</div>

I have not tried this out, but this is where I would go first to try and do something like this.

Does this help?
