Is it possible to remove the description for the subcategory banners?
In the example below, only “Clinical Leads” would be visible. I could use display:none, but the data is still loading. Thank you.
Hi Brandon 
CSS would be the way to go. The description is loaded anyway as you pointed out, and I believe even overwriting the template wouldn’t change the request’s content.
It probably couldn’t be changed without writing a plugin, which would be overkill.
That said, from a performance perspective, returning the descriptions or not is negligible.
