I’d like to add the post category name to the post items as an additional class in the source code.
I have identified what I think is the right place within postslider.php. (I did a test with a ‘plain’ class and it did output the term)
So then I tried changing line 310 from:
$output .= "<div class='slide-entry flex_column {$style} {$post_class} {$grid} {$extraClass} {$thumb_class}'>";to:
$output .= "<div class='{$category} slide-entry flex_column {$style} {$post_class} {$grid} {$extraClass} {$thumb_class}'>";with no success.
I also tried adding
' . $category->cat_name . 'in the same place but I broke the page.Does anyone know how I may be able to achieve this?
cheers

In postslider.php replace
$post_class = "post-entry post-entry-{$the_id} slide-entry-overview slide-loop-{$post_loop_count} slide-parity-{$parity} {$last}";with
$post_class = "post-entry post-entry-{$the_id} slide-entry-overview slide-loop-{$post_loop_count} slide-parity-{$parity} {$last}";
$postcats = get_the_category($the_id);
foreach($postcats as $postcat)
{
$post_class .= ' '.$postcat.' ';
}Thanks for your help with this Dude. When I do the replacement I get this error:
Catchable fatal error: Object of class stdClass could not be converted to string in /home/birdsnest/public_html/blog/wp-content/themes/enfold/config-templatebuilder/avia-shortcodes/postslider.php on line 253
Do you have any ideas about what I may need to change?
I had some help from a colleague, replace line 253 with either of the following:
$post_class .= ‘ ‘.$postcat->cat_name.’ ‘; // if you want the category name, or
$post_class .= ‘ ‘.$postcat->cat_ID.’ ‘; // if you want the category ID
