   Hello everyone!
   I am trying to modify the upPrev Previous Post Animated Notification plugin to only display one category instead of all of them from one post. but I don't know how to do that, I need help. Here is the partial code where I can spot the code to query the categories:
   

   $catIDs = array();
           foreach((get_the_category()) as $category) {
               $catIDs[] = $category->cat_ID;
           }
           $args = array(
               "numberposts" => -1,
               "category" => implode(',',$catIDs),
               "orderby" => "date",
               "order" => "DESC"
           );

   There is anyway to modify this code to only call one category?
   Thanks for the help!

   I found the answer, this is what I did:
   

   $category = get_the_category();
           $args = array(
               "numberposts" => -1,
               "orderby" => "date",
               "order" => "DESC"
           );
           $posts = get_posts($args);
           $i = 0;
           foreach($posts as $row){
               $i++;
               if ($row->ID == get_the_ID())
                   break;
           }

   Then I just echo the result:
   echo $category[0]->cat_name;
   Thanks,
