How to check category of of custom post type or not

So basically you want to use the category.php for a particular post_type‘s category, right ? I think you can make sure the thing like below-

if( 'your-main-blog-post-type' == get_post_type() ) {
    // then show what I want
} else {
    // don't
}

Use above logic in your category.php and I hope you’ll get the solution you’re looking for.
