Collapse category description to add more text

Any good online store owner knows that SEO is essential to stand out from the crowd.

Properly referencing PrestaShop category pages is no easy task. To achieve this, it's advisable to include a large description to maintain a coherent text/product balance.

It's also advisable to place this description at the very top of the page, to give it more importance and weight in search engine rankings.

However, this practice is detrimental to the sale of your products, as visitors will have to scroll a long way down the page to access your products each time they return to your category pages.

This is where this module comes into its own, providing the answer to all these problems by allowing you to put SEO-perfect category descriptions online without any limits, since the customer will be able to browse undisturbed every time the page is displayed, while still being able to read the entire text if they wish.

The space dedicated to the description of your categories will always be the same, and you'll be able to move this text to the top of your pages to significantly increase its importance and improve your SEO.
