How to display Category Description in Event
JEvents 2.0 was launched over 2 years ago and the latest stable version is version 2.2 which will run on Joomla 1.5 and Joomla 2.5. JEvents 1.5 is therefore no longer actively supported - you should upgrade to JEvents 2.2+ as soon as possible.

I added a link in the Category Description field and do not see it appear in the Event anywhere. Can this be done?

I think it could be done with a template overrides. This documents provides some hints about doing templates overrides in JEvents:

I've attached a zip file containing a template override to make this work as expected. ie. if only one category is specified in the menu item, the category description is shown (and the category selector is not shown).
This is a bit of a hack but it seems to work fine with jEvents 2.0.11.
I'm really struggling to think of a reason why this isn't the default behaviour.

Thank you a lot for your contribution!!
I guess it's not been implemented because no one has requested it yet.
