   How can I create a function that checks the post category and base on the that show the latest post on that category or if possible check multiple categories?

   hi wppit,

   Sorry, I have tried to get but did not clear your requirement. :)

   Can you please explain more your problem.

   My guess: You want to show latest post of each category- right?

   If yes then,

   Answer: WP provides function to get all the categories in a array, then in foreach loop for categories you can get the post list by using function query_posts using parameters category id, order by post publish date and showpost parameter value to 1.

   Then print the data as you required :)

   Thanks

   Hello manishkrag,

   This is what I need: When a visitor loads a new post, I would like WordPress to check the category of the post the visitor just loaded. Then depending in which category that post is, I would like to show the latest post for that particular category.

   Thanks,
