hey guy I am NOT a programmer but I NEED ur help asap. I'm currently building a webite and I need a way to do the following:

  1. Have custom field/additional field for category such as a image,bio,an area where I can paste embed code and fields etc....

  2. Display the information stored in those fields in my widgets or any other place on my site DYNAMICALLY (meaning: When I put the code into the sidebar I don't want to specify the category, I want the code to display the infobased on the current category that the user ha selected)

EX: I have category 'A' and 'B'. I have placed the code in the locations I want and when the User clicks on category 'B' I want all the field from THAT category that I have specified to display on the page.

Is there a Plugin or Codes for this? (Remember I am NOT a programmer)

ALSO: Is there a way to capture the category name in the url and display it on the page

ex: http:///myite.com/category/main-category/A

how can I capture the child category name to do this:

Hello

I want to replace that bracket with the current category name.

WPSE is not a "please write my code for me" site. Any question that is prefaced with, "I am NOT a programmer" is not likely to be well-suited to WPSE. – Chip Bennett Feb 1 '12 at 17:22

This question is unlikely to help any future visitors; it is only relevant to a small geographic area, a specific moment in time, or an extraordinarily narrow situation that is not generally applicable to the worldwide audience of the internet. For help making this question more broadly applicable, see the FAQ.
