    Hi,

    So im using the post slider element and im looking to add the categories to it. I see there is a function created to add it to the other post grid element but I need it for the post slider.

    Do you have something that will work for me?

    Thanks

    im trying to have the category of the post show up when using the post slider. I know there is a function that will let me do this for the post grid module but there is none for the post slider. I just want to display what category the post is in on the website under or above the title of the post that gets pulled in.

    Hi acscreativenew,

    Please try to add this in your functions.php (child theme):

    function enfold_post_slider_meta_content($meta_content, $entry, $index, ) {
    $categories = get_the_category($entry->ID);
    $separator = ' ';
    $output = '<div class="slide-meta-del">/</div><div class="postslider-category">';
    
    if ( ! empty( $categories ) ) {
	        foreach( $categories as $category ) {
				$output .= '<span alt="' . esc_attr( sprintf( __( 'View all posts in %s', 'textdomain' ), $category->name ) ) . '">' . esc_html( $category->name ) . '</span>' . $separator;
	        }
	    }
	$output .= '</div>';

    return $meta_content . $output;
}

add_filter('avf_post_slider_meta_content', 'enfold_post_slider_meta_content', 10, 4);

    Hope it helps.

    Best regards,

    Thanks for the reply but it did not work.

    Could it be because the items being pulled to the post slider is not true “post”, its a custom post type and a custom taxonomy. you can see them below.

    also the code did throw an error when i first added it in. I had to remove the “,” after “$index” on the first line.

    Hi acscreativenew,

    Try to replace:

    $categories = get_the_category($entry->ID);

    with:

    $categories = get_the_terms( $entry->ID, 'taxonomy' );

    just change taxonomy with the correct taxonomy name.
    You can check further information here: https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/get_the_terms/

    Sorry this is still not working, even in its most simple for of just trying to insert the code into that section to see the HTML

    
function enfold_post_slider_meta_content($meta_content, $entry, $index ) {
    $output = '<div class="slide-meta-del">/</div><div class="postslider-category">';
	$output .= '<span class="cat"><a href="#">test</a></span>';
	$output .= '</div>';

    return $meta_content . $output;
}

add_filter('avf_post_slider_meta_content', 'enfold_post_slider_meta_content', 10, 4);

    Before that I tried a number of different ways to call the custom term.

    Hi acscreativenew,

    Can you give us temporary admin access? so we can check it.
    Or you can create a staging site for us, if the site is already live.

    Best regards,
    Nikko

    Hi acscreativenew,

    Which page are you referring? I tried to check on the homepage but I only saw a content slider, I have checked some pages but did not find it.

    Hi acscreativenew,

    I apologize for the delayed response.
    It seems the code I gave was not needed, I have commented out the php code I gave however I have modified your Reviews cpt and in includes/custom-post-types.php line 348, I changed:

    'hierarchical' => true,

    to:

    'hierarchical' => false,

    and in Quick CSS, I have added this CSS code:

    .avia-content-slider-inner .slide-meta {
    display: none;
}

    Please review your site.

    Best regards,
    Nikko
