Categories display

Hello guys,

you have helped me to display the post title on the featured image, which is great, but the categories disappeared. Is there a way to include them in the post somewhere, under the title or under the post itself? it would be awesome! thanks a lot.

Hey Isabella,

Thanks for writing in!

In your single post pages, you have created a global block which serves as a banner image. In that global block you added this dynamic content in the text element:

by: {{dc:user:display_name}} | {{dc:post:publish_date format="F j, Y"}}

Regretfully we do not have a dynamic content option that will display the categories. I suggest that you use a 3rd party plugin, Show Post Categories, and then use the shortcode to display the categories like this:

by: {{dc:user:display_name}} | {{dc:post:publish_date format="F j, Y"}} <br/>
<span>[show_post_categories show="category"]</span>

Please check your site now.

Hello @RueNel,

Thanks a lot, I was noticing that the categories magically appeared :)))
but my problem is that they are not clickable :frowning: , which is the reason why I wanted the category to appear. It helps the user experience in the search.

Could you help, please?

Thaks a lot :slight_smile:

Hello Isabella,

To make the categories as a link, you simply edit the shortcode and make it like this:

by: {{dc:user:display_name}} | {{dc:post:publish_date format="F j, Y"}} <br/>
<span>[show_post_categories show="category" hyperlink="yes"]</span>

For your reference, please check this link:

We would love to know if this has worked for you. Thank you.

Hi Isabella,

I just have checked your previous threads and looked for any given login details.
That is why I was able to find a way to resolve your category issues.
