Question

On my WordPress theme, it displays all of the categories a post is in on the homepage for the post block, I only want to display one category even if a post is under multiple categories.

i.e. Category One, Category Two, Category Three

I want it to be Category One…

This is the code that is in place at the moment:

<h2><?php the_category(', ') ?></h2>

Answer 1

<?php
$category = get_the_category();
echo $category[0]->cat_name;
?>
