    Where the category description and title should show up, according to the theme demo, at the top of the page above the blog posts,

    Lifestyle

    This is a category description, which is a feature of Genesis and can be used to boost your SEO. Be sure to enable this from the Edit Category screen under the Category Archive Settings option.

    After doing this... Nothing happens... I need the description and title to show up just like the demo. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Ah yes, I think I stumbled upon it... Like the idiot that I am... I've only built brochure-like sites up until now. So you're telling me that the inner pages that hold the blog posts are, in fact, the categories? Learning has occurred, if so...

    Thanks for the help Tom, again.

    Not exactly 🙂 ...

    The URL you cited is a post -- the category archive detail is displayed only on the archive page, not a single post.

    For reference: https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/basics/template-hierarchy/
