Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site. Why active installs don’t tell the whole story →

Overview

About this plugin

You can use this plugin to show specific or all categories of a post

A meta box with the name “show categories” will be automatically added to your edit/new post dashboard

containing two fields.

* The first field allows you to select which categories you wish to appear on this post page. It is easy and you can separate them with slashes (/). If you wish to display all categories, leave it blank.

for example: news/world news/what’s new

* The second field allows you to add classes for your custom style.

Finally, just add [sven_category] where you want them to appear on your post page

(note: this plugin now only works for posts)
