    I want to make a post but dynamically insert the category title of the page the post falls under into the body of the post.

    Is there a way to insert the category title, post title, category slug, etc., into the post?

    I’d really appreciate any information that anyone can provide.

    Forgive me, but I don’t see how this could be useful. You can much more easily add this information into a post meta area.

    That said…

    I have used the runPHP plugin (2.3.3 as of right now) to execute PHP in posts. You could, in theory (i haven’t tested this) run something like:

    <?php
foreach((get_the_category()) as $category) {
    echo $category->cat_name . ' ';
}
?>

    …in a post. If you didn’t want to have to remember the code all the time you could modify your quicktags and make a new button for it.
