    Hi,

    please refer to this snippet of @ismael which works fine:
    https://kriesi.at/support/topic/masonry-blog-show-category-name-without-filter-but-directly-in-theme-file/#post-1036481

    the only disadvantage:

    it shows the separator | AFTER the category term; the separator should only separate if there are more than 1 categories inbetween them (see the green arrow), but it should not be shown at the end of the category/categories (= red arrow):

    How can I modify Ismael’s snippet:

    add_filter( 'avf_masonry_loop_prepare', 'avf_masonry_loop_prepare_mod_cat', 10, 2 );
function avf_masonry_loop_prepare_mod_cat( $key, $entries )
{
    $categories = get_the_category($key['ID']);
    $separator = ', ';
	$output = '';
	$items = count($categories);
	$i = 0;
    if ( ! empty( $categories ) ) {
        foreach( $categories as $category ) {
			if($i++ === $items) {
				$separator = '';
			}
			$output .= '<span alt="' . esc_attr( sprintf( __( 'View all posts in %s', 'textdomain' ), $category->name ) ) . '">' . esc_html( $category->name ) . '</span>' . $separator;
        }
    }
    $key['text_before'] .= trim( $output, $separator );

    return $key;
}

    Thank you.

    Hey Gitte,

    I have tested the code and it works fine on my end.
    Also I get comma as a separator which is defined in the code but the screenshot shows a pipe |
    This part of the code prevents the separator to be added after the last category:

    			if($i++ === $items) {
				$separator = '';
			}

    Best regards,
    Nikko

    sorry, the snippet above is the wrong one, I do not use the filter, I use @ismael modification here:
    https://kriesi.at/support/topic/masonry-blog-show-category-name-without-filter-but-directly-in-theme-file/#post-1036902

    /* show category name in ALB element "blog masonry" */				
$categories = get_the_category($entry['ID']);
				$separator = ' | ';
				$count = count($categories);
				$i = 0;
				$output_cat = "<div class='masonry-categories'>";
				if ( ! empty( $categories ) ) {
					foreach( $categories as $category ) {
						if($i++ === $count) {
							$separator = '';
						}
						$output_cat .= '<span alt="' . esc_attr( sprintf( __( 'View all posts in %s', 'textdomain' ), $category->name ) ) . '">' . esc_html( $category->name ) . '</span>' . $separator;
					}
				}
				$output_cat .= "</div>";

				$cat = trim( $output_cat, $separator );

				$text_before .= $cat;

    Hi,

    Thanks for the update.

    Do you have a test page where we can see this modification in action? The login token in the other thread has expired, so we didn’t get a chance to take a look.

    Hi,

    Thanks for the update. There’s nothing in the private field though. Please create a test page.

    Hi,

    Thanks for the update.

    1.) Try to edit the following code.

    if($i++ === $count) {

    Replace it with:

    if($i++ == $count) {

    2.) We have already mentioned on the previous thread that you won’t be able to click on the category because the masonry item or container itself is a link.
