This module adds the ability to have a different page layout for landing categories.

It also adds the ability to add widgets to specific landing category pages.

How to use

Set a category as landing

In the admin panel, on the category create/edit page, under display settings, set the Display Mode to "Landing Category"

A custom handle jh_category_landing will be loaded on that category page. Add your customizations to category landing page in that layout handle.

Add Widgets to a specific category page or to all of them

In the admin panel, on the add/edit a widget page, under Layout Updates, set Display on as "Landing Categories", then choose a specific category or check the "all" radio button.
