You can specify multiple categories within has_category
like so:
if ( has_category( array( 'category_1', 'category_2' ) ) {
// do something
}
However, I am not sure if this acts as AND
or OR
, meaning does it require that ALL categories specified are matched, or one of the X supplied (category_1 OR category_2).
In any case, your syntax should work perfectly fine. double check on the spelling perhaps?
