[resolved] Change Category TItle in Link (2 posts)

    I am using the code

    <?php the_category(' '); ?>

    to put a Link to the category of the currently viewing post.

    The link uses the category name as the text.

    I want to use my own text for the link.

    IE :

    Click HERE to go to the category page!

    The text "HERE" should link to the category page, in same manner as
    <?php the_category(' '); ?> code.

    I figured it out

    <?php
$category = get_the_category();
echo '<a href="'.get_category_link($category[0]->cat_ID).'">
TEXT HERE
</a>'; ?>
