title: Joomla 3 Articles Category module override with category image and description
body: <p>I've recently bumped into a problem when wanting to display a certain category (or subcategories) with its children articles, while including the category description and image. The module normally used for this is Articles Category.</p>
  
  <p>What I'm trying to achieve:</p>
  
  <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/yv4fY.jpg" alt="Example of good layout">
  But what I'm actually ending up with:</p>
  
  <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/zQEu6.jpg" alt="Example of real output">
  When trying to call the category description or image I get errors while they have not been stored, only the category name and its items (not even a link to the category)</p>
  
  <p>Any idea if there is an override possibility to make this work, or another module that does the trick?</p>
