Display category in articles

where do you want to show the categories?
below the title, below the excerpt?
same as in single post view?
same formatting? different formatting?

are you already using a child theme?

generally, the code to show the post is done via /template-parts/post/content.php (unless you are using post formats).

and the section to show the category is done (conditionalyy for single posts only):

	<?php if ( is_single() ) : ?>
		<?php twentyseventeen_entry_footer(); ?>
	<?php endif; ?>

remove the condition, and the categories will also show in the posts page.

one way of doing it, would be to edit content.php in /template-parts/post/ (in a child theme or not) and replace this section:

			echo '<div class="entry-meta">';
			if ( is_single() ) {
				twentyseventeen_posted_on();
			} else {
				echo twentyseventeen_time_link();
				twentyseventeen_edit_link();
			};
			echo '</div><!-- .entry-meta -->';

with:

			echo '<div class="entry-meta">';
			
				twentyseventeen_posted_on();
				if( is_home() ) : 
					//categories output//
					/* translators: used between list items, there is a space after the comma */
					$separate_meta = __( ', ', 'twentyseventeen' );

					// Get Categories for posts.
					$categories_list = get_the_category_list( $separate_meta );

					if ( ( $categories_list && twentyseventeen_categorized_blog() ) ) {
					echo ' /<span class="cat-tags-links"> ';
					// Make sure there's more than one category before displaying.
						echo '<span class="cat-links">' . '<span class="screen-reader-text">' . __( 'Categories', 'twentyseventeen' ) . '</span>' . $categories_list . '</span>';
				
					echo '</span>';
					}
					twentyseventeen_edit_link();
				endif;
			
			echo '</div><!-- .entry-meta -->';
