    Hi
    I am having so much fun with Gridder! Many of my entries have more than one category. I’d like to be able to show that on their profile page. Is this possible? How so? or even in the preview? https://southeastarts.org.au/south-east-arts-directory/

    Would appreciate your advice. Thanks!

    It is possible, but you would have to edit the template in order to show the categories assigned to the entry.

    You can add the categories to the card.php and/or the card-single.php file by adding this where you want them to be displayed:

    $entry->getCategoryBlock( array( 'separator' => ', ', 'before' => '<span>', 'after' => '</span>' ) );

    The card.php and the card-single.php file can be found in this folder:

    ../wp-content/plugins/connections-gridder/

    I recommend following the method in this QuickTip so you can add it in an update safe way.

    Hope that helps!

    One more question…

    When someone chooses a category to view is there a way to highlight that category (so they know where they are) ?

    e.g. if I choose Screen Industry/Editing and Connections delivers me the results, nothing is highlighted to remind me where I am (other than looking at the URL)

    Thanks

    Sorry, no, there is not presently. I’ve added this to my feature request list.
