Kent’s Blog

This is acturally for wordpress’s breadcrumb navagation, when we want to show the category for the current category, we can use the code below, just for record

<?php
foreach((get_the_category()) as $category) {
    echo $category->cat_name . ' ';
}
?>

and you can replace the cat_name to be other category factors below

cat_ID

the category id (also stored as ‘term_id’)

cat_name

the category name (also stored as ‘name’)

category_nicename

a slug generated from the category name (also stored as ’slug’)

category_description

the category description (also stored as ‘description’)

category_parent

the category id of the current category’s parent. ‘0′ for no parents. (also stored as ‘parent’)

category_count

the number of uses of this category (also stored as ‘count’)

we can also use the code from wordpress directly,
 <?php the_category(', '); ?>
 <?php the_title(); ?>
