By default it looks like these categories are indented in the “View All” tab: So you shouldn’t need an additional plugin to do this. My test site only has 38 categories, but it should still indent them. That said, if you’re repeating “Aluminum”, “Carbon”, “Steel”, etc. then you might be best off having that as … Read more
If you want to change the appearance, try editing the css that targets the categories. If you want to change the text “Filled under:” (before) or the “,” (sep) that separate the categories, in my Genesis theme I use the following code . Try adapting it by changing genesis_post_meta to your version. add_filter( ‘genesis_post_meta’, ‘sp_post_meta’ … Read more
Sadly get_categories() and get_terms() won’t likely ever support ‘orderby’ => ‘rand’ which really leaves you with two options – get every category and select 5 randomly, or construct your own WP_Query to query categories with ‘orderby’ => ‘rand’. The former is easier to implement, and will likely have better performance (unless you have an very … Read more
What you can do is, create a new taxonomy session and use it with classes. In this way you don’t have to create each class again and you will be able to differentiate which session (and class) a blog post is linked to. Example: Create new blog post. Assign it session 2017-2018 and class year … Read more
If a post has multiple categories there is no “correct” category. Any of them are correct, it’s a many-to-one relationship. Since a post can belong to multiple categories it’s a mistake for any function to assume a single category. Expect an array. If you’re looking to apply conditions based on one or more categories you … Read more
Here’s one way with the following tax query: ‘tax_query’ => [ [ ‘taxonomy’ => ‘category’, ‘field’ => ‘slug’, ‘terms’ => [ ‘foo’ ], ‘operator’ => ‘NOT IN’ ], ], where the foo term slug is excluded.
So there’s two things going on here. Firstly get_the_category() doesn’t accept a category ID as a parameter. It accepts a post ID for which to get categories from. Judging by your code you need to use get_category(): $category = get_category( get_query_var(‘cat’) ); The other problem is that you seem to be using $cat_name without checking … Read more
It should be noted that both <?php echo get_the_category_list(); ?> and <?php foreach((get_the_category()) as $category){ echo $category->name.”<br>”; echo category_description($category); } ?> display ALL categories that are assigned to the current post in the loop. From your question’s title, I understand that you want to display all available categories that exist in the website, so wp_list_categories() … Read more
This should find an immediate parent for you. // get the current category ID $category_id = get_the_category(get_the_ID()); // get the current category object $child = get_category($category_id[0]->term_id); // get it’s parent object $parent = get_category($child->parent); var_dump($parent->name . ‘ – ‘ . $child->name); The same but in a WordPress loop: $args = [ ‘post_type’ => ‘post’ ]; … Read more
$post-ID is not the same as $post->ID. You’re using the former for has_category(), but the latter for get_the_category(). $post->ID is correct.
