It’s a great plugin. I suspect not many people use it because your instructions (FAQ) on how to insert the code is very confusing \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

You give 2 codes:<\/p>\n

CODE 1:
\n<?php
\n $categories = get_the_category();
\n $separator = ‘ \/ ‘;
\n $output = ”;
\n if($categories){
\n foreach($categories as $category) {
\n $rl_category_color = rl_color($category->cat_ID);
\n $output .= ‘term_id ).'” style=”color:’.$rl_category_color.’;”>’.$category->cat_name.’<\/a>‘.$separator;
\n }
\n echo trim($output, $separator);
\n }
\n?><\/p>\n

CODE 2:<\/p>\n

<?php
\n $categories = get_the_category();
\n $separator = ”;
\n $output = ”;
\n if($categories){
\n foreach($categories as $category) {
\n $rl_category_color = rl_color($category->cat_ID);
\n $output .= ‘<div class=”featured-cat” style=”color:’.$rl_category_color.’;”>’.$category->cat_name.'<\/div>’.$separator;
\n }
\n echo trim($output, $separator);
\n }
\n?><\/p>\n

And what about themes that do not have <?php the_category(); ?> function? Include a solution to where and which code to use.<\/p>\n

As of right now, you are the only one who understands your FAQ, because you know code. The majority of us do not. When you write instructions, try to think like a regular user (and not as a programmer.) You could explain it to someone else and have them write the instructions in a clear way. It’s OK \ud83d\ude42 <\/p>\n

Trust me, if you re-write the FAQ in plain, simple and correct English (have someone proofread what you write) then you will have tons of downloads \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

It’s a great plug in. I hope you clarify your FAQ.<\/p>\n

Thank you.<\/p>\n
