Hi there,
I am using a bit of code to split my post categories into two sections (only showing the child ones) and am wondering if I am able to limit the output to 3 each (just for the front page) as some posts will have many categories attached to them.
The snippet I am using is below:
<?php foreach((get_the_category()) as $childcat) { if (cat_is_ancestor_of(14, $childcat)) { echo '<a href="/category/',$childcat->category_nicename,'/">',$childcat->cat_name,'</a>', ' '; }}
?>

I am also looking for limiting posts from x no. of cats. For eg, when I Post something, usually I will be adding to more than 3 cats, but in the Single view, below each post content, there will be recent posts (5 nos) from all the categories in which that particular post has been posted. I would like to limit output from recent posts from only 2 cats. Is it possible?
Pls help.
