yeah i have a few years intermediate php experience.. but i’m not sure where to begin with modifying the wp code. thanks for your repy.. i’ll go poking around.. if anyone has any pointers i’m all ears 🙂
thanks for yor help! it was a silly mistake by me.. i had put the variable in a routine that was adding the extra markup. [slaps forehead]
michael: thanks for your reply. I was already using that function though, and was surprised that it returns a html link string instead of just the category name.
$cat = get_the_category(); $cat = $cat[0]; echo $cat->cat_name;
Echoes something like this:
<li><a href=""> News</a></li>
Instead of just News
