Joomla! SEBLOD and custom category fields. How to use categories in the output template?

Good afternoon. Perhaps there are Joomla experts and those who used the SEBLOD plugin.
Version of Joomla!: 3.2
Version of SEBLOD: 3
The situation is as follows. The Seblod plugin allows you to add custom fields for a category. I need to render these fields in the category template of the com_content component . Is there a possibility to do this? Or will it be necessary to use plugin templates to display fields? The output through the plugin itself is extremely inconvenient and I want to generate my own output based on the entered fields.
Thank you in advance.

Perhaps it was my jamb. Choosing SEBLOD as a plugin for my fields was a mistake. Moved to Joomla! FieldAttach. Much more convenient, more concise, and documentation for use in the backend. The question is closed.

It is necessary to find out on which event the content from the plugin is hung (I am not familiar with it).
Judging by what I looked at in Joomla, placeholders for plugins are implemented under the article output, i.e. in the blog view of the category, but not under the category as a whole.
See /components/com_content/views/category/view.html.php (from line 120) and /components/com_content/views/category/tmpl/blog_item.php if you don't override the template.

Didn't find what you were looking for?
