How to pull a list of posts in a category while exluding posts in subcategories of the category
If you use category__in and category__not_in instead, it will only pull the posts that are in that category, not the subcategories as well. For your code, this would look something like this: $args = array( ‘category__in’ => $cat, ‘category__not_in’ => $catHidden ); Note: this will only exclude posts that are directly in the category as … Read more
category__not_in and id values from variable
get_category_by_slug() returns a category object or FALSE: $cat1 = get_category_by_slug( ‘cata’ ); print ‘<pre>’ . htmlspecialchars( print_r( $cat1, TRUE ) ) . ‘</pre>’; Result: stdClass Object ( [term_id] => 3 [name] => Cat A [slug] => cata [term_group] => 0 [term_taxonomy_id] => 3 [taxonomy] => category category__not_in and id values from variable => [parent] => … Read more
Get Categories Where Taxonomy Equals ‘n’
get_categories() only lists categories, so you shouldn’t be seeing any terms from the custom taxonomy. What you want to use is get_terms() which takes a taxonomy as an argument. As you can read about in this answer, get_terms() is actually used by get_categories(), it just prefills the “taxonomy” argument with “category.” If you swap in … Read more

Different Category Headers using in_category and elseif

Try this: <?php if (in_category( array(6,14,15,13) )) { ?> <div id=”eatheader”> <?php } elseif (in_category( array(7,11,12,10,9) )) { ?> <div id=”goheader”> <?php } elseif (in_category( array(4,16,17,18,19) )) { ?> <div id=”playheader”> <?php } elseif (in_category( … Read more
How can i remove the posts category class names from body_class
This could be solved via CSS as well. Just set up declarations for the special cases where there is overlap between categories: .category-cars { background-color: #f00; } .category-bikes, .category-cars.category-bikes { background-color: #0f0; } This will give any posts that are in both bikes and cars the same background color as those used in the bikes … Read more
Displaying list of subcategories and not parent category
Here’s a function that get’s the category from the post and then displays an unordered list of term children links. I’m assuming you only have one category per post. If you don’t, then you’d have to iterate through $cat_id in addition to $cat_children: // get category id $cat_id = get_the_category(); // get array of all … Read more
