How to use and understand category

I have a section called outdoor and two categories (Conversation Sets – Patio-dining-sets) . What I am trying to do is when someone click on either categories, then it list all the products. But when you click on a single product it displays more informations. Can anyone help me please. Thank you

Conversation Sets—> show all product —> show single product

Patio-dining-Sets—> show all product —> show single product

Re: How to use and understand category

If I understand you correctly, you would need something like this on your page:

<txp:if_section name="outdoor">
   <txp:if_category>
      <!-- this is the category landing page -->
      <h2>Products in <txp:category title="1" /></h2>
      <txp:article_custom category='<txp:category />' break="li" wraptag="ul" limit="999">
         <txp:permlink><txp:title /></txp:permlink>
      </txp:article_custom>
   <txp:else />
      <txp:if_individual_article>
         <!-- this is the individual article page -->
         <txp:article form="your-individual-article-form" />
      <txp:else />
         <!-- this is the section landing page -->
         <h2>All categories</h2>
         <txp:category_list categories="conversation-sets,patio-dining-sets" this_section="1" break="li" wraptag="ul" />
      </txp:if_individual_article>
   </txp:if_category>
</txp:if_section>

I hope this helps, if not let me know!
