Displaying the Category name?

[Kay]

Hi – I am creating a custom theme and just need to be able to list the category name(s) – Something similar to get_the_category(). I did find that tribe_get_event_taxonomy() does output the category names, but it does it as an html string. What I’m looking for is either an array of categories, or just the name of the first category in the array (no HTML).

Thanks!

Hi Kay,

Thanks for getting in touch!

We’d be happy to help — but I do want to note that our pre-sales forum is used to answer questions about purchasing our premium plugins.

If you’re looking for technical support, it would be awesome if you could post your question to our <u>WordPress.org support forum</u>.

Or, if you already have an active license for one of premium plugins, will you please log into your account and post your topic to our premium support forum instead?

In the meantime, one idea you might want to consider is using get_taxonomies() to output the event categories:

Thanks so much!
