    $categories =  get_categories('hide_empty=0&parent=16’);

foreach ($categories as $category)
{
       $cat_ID = $category->cat_ID;
       $inrCategories =  get_categories("hide_empty=0&parent=$cat_ID");

       foreach ($inrCategories as $inrCategory)
       {
         if($inrCategory->count == 0)
         {
          continue;
         }

      //Display the sub category information using $category values like
         echo '<h2>'.$category->name.'</h2>';
         echo '<ul>';

         foreach (get_posts('cat='.$category->term_id) as $post) {
             setup_postdata( $post );
             echo '<li><a href="'.get_permalink($post->ID).'">'.get_the_title().'</a></li>';
         }
         echo '</ul>';
       }

}

    Basically this code check whether a post has any sub sub category under a sub category, if yes echo sub category and the title of the post.

    I would like to add the sub sub category to the front of the title. Am struggling to do so. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    Anyone have any idea? Basically just need to check the sub category under “$inrCategory” and echo it in front of <a href="'.get_permalink($post->ID).'">'.get_the_title().'</a>

    Thanks in advance.

    Still struggling. Basically my structure is like this.

    A
    -B1
    –C1
    -B2
    –C2
    -B3
    –C3

    The posts are listed in Cs. So the above code checks for posts in C and will echo respective B with the titles of the posts. Now I would like to echo B and followed by C in front of the titles. Eg (C)titles.

    Struggling for 2 days. Would be grateful for any help. Thanks.

    For those who are keen, the solution is here

    if (post_is_in_descendant_category($cat_ID))
foreach((get_the_category()) as $childcat)if (cat_is_ancestor_of($cat_ID, $childcat))
echo $childcat->cat_name . ' ';

    Just add this to after the line “setup_postdata( $post );”
