How it show it on frontend
If your category pages are not driven by category grid, then your changes will show up immediately on the frontend.
On the other hand, if category grid is setup, then you need to make an additional modification under it.
NOTE: To determine whether category grid for your site is in place, navigate to Content Management > Default Pages. Click Edit for category and observe the section under Responsive Category Content Grid. If the section is not blank, it means category grid is set up on your site.
Modify Category grid
A special container called Responsive Category Content Grid placeholder is used to place contents from your category pages.
Create a new container and select Responsive Category Content Grid placeholder from Contents dropdown.
By default, this new container will be created in the end. You can position the container by dragging and dropping to the place where you want to show the contents.
Usually, category description is shown underneath category title. So, you can modify the existing modules and place your content as shown in the following video.
