Is this buggy for 1.7.2?
I have:
{exp:weblog:categories category_group="2" style="linear" weblog="weblog1"}
{if category_description}
{category_name} - this category has a description
{/if}
{/exp:weblog:categories}it is rendering like this when viewing the source code:
{if ""}
Lifestyles - this category has a description
{/if}
{if "Jasper is conveniently located"}
Location - this category has a description
{/if}It doesn’t make sense.

Hi Ryan,
Thanks for posting to the Forums!
Just so I’m clear, this is being output to the browser?
{if ""}
Lifestyles - this category has a description
{/if}{if "Jasper is conveniently located"}
Location - this category has a description
{/if}
Can you share the entire template code? We need to see the overall context to accurately troubleshoot.
In the meantime, can you try this simplified bit for me?
{exp:weblog:categories weblog="weblog1"}
{if category_description}{category_description}{/if}
{/exp:weblog:categories}Cheers,

it is giving the same output when I reduce the code as you have suggested.
I found what appears to be the problem This code is inside google maps javascript code. See below. When I put the categories tag outside the javascript code, it works properly. How do I get this to work then?

It does sound like it’s similiar, but typically it’s the js that gets stripped because it’s treated as an EE conditional.
To be on safe side- what is your debug setting (in Admin › System Preferences › Output and Debugging Preferences), ‘Debug Preference’ is set to show to either Superadmins (preferred) or everyone- yes?
If so- for a quick test- what happens if you remove the conditionals- so it’s
