 * All I can say is that the issue is within the archive.php file in your current
   theme’s folder.

 * Something went wrong, the software created a WP_Error Object to handle the problem,
   but then still tries to use the error object as if it were a string. I’d have
   to see the code to tell you what to do to fix it. Post the first 10 lines archive.
   php.

 * Put `print_r()` around `category_description()` instead of `echo`. Replace this`
   echo category_description($category);` with this `print_r(category_description(
   $category));`. This won’t exactly fix the problem. If that is where the error
   is the error will go away but you’ll get long string of error message instead.

 * Try:
 *     ```
       <?php get_header(); ?>
   
       <div class="clear"></div>
       <? if ( is_category() ) {
       	$cat_id = get_query_var('cat');?>
       <div class="subheader">
             <h1><?php echo category_description($cat_id); ?></h1>
       </div>
       <? } ?>
       <div class="breadcrumbs">
       ```
