   I want to show the category of each post in the post content, and am sure there is an easy way, but can't find it again.

   I am using TDO Mini Forms for people to create posts, and I can add an append post widget using code such as:
   

   <?php
   ?>

   But I can't work out what I need to put in there, to get the category name to appear.

   I feel it should be so simple, and that I may be missing the obvious, but I have sat trying this for the last 2 hours.

   I did look at that, and used
   

   Category: <?php the_category(); ?>
   and
   Categories: <?php the_category(' '); ?>

   but they didn't work.

   I have now used the following, which works, but gives a link that I don't want.
   <?php the_category( $separator, $parents, $post_id ); ?>
