    Hey, would like to display business’s categories in the listing. At the present I display:
    Contact person: Name Name
    phone: 12345678
    email: email@email.com
    web: http://www.website.com
    categories: this feature I need asap

    Is it possible?

    I’m assuming this is in regards to the Slim Plus template, correct?

    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 file by adding this where you want them to be displayed:

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

    The card.php file can be found in this folder:

    ../wp-content/plugins/connections-slim-plus/

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

    Hope that helps!

    Thanks, it is displaying now! Is it possible somehow to hide category block from other languages via shortcode options. The big issue is that I can’t translate category names and I can’t display foreign category names under other language. If you know what I mean?

    If the language is determined by a query variable, then you could display the categories based on the query variable and its value.
