Thanks Martha,

Basically I get nothing printed. When you say $post is not set up, am missing some code then ? I am placing this code outside the loop but by declaring $post as a global variable I thought I could still access the whole post object.

Thanks for your time helping me understand this Martha, appreciate it,

Cheers

Thanks Nickkos. That did the trick and saved me many painful hours.

This topic is resolved

All sorted now thanks chandanonline4u for looking into this it was a but strange, but like most wp issues it was a plugin that was screwing up the categories. Got a bit scary…just glad all is fixed.

Thanks
Paul

Thanks..This is the category code for accommodation. I am sure though the code will be OK..as it was working fine. I am wondering if third party plugin is to blame here. De-activating but still no luck
