Just like the way you can create custom page templates, this plugin enables you to build category archive templates by adding this bit to the top of your file:
<pre><code><?php
/**
 * Category Template: Grid
 */
?>
</code></pre>
and when you’re adding or editing categories, you can choose the desired template file.
This plugin is maintained solely for backward compatibility. Try the new <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/custom-taxonomy-templates/" rel="ugc">Custom Taxonomy Templates</a> instead, it supports all taxonomies and also uses the new term meta feature in WP 4.4.
