formating the output from the Post Categories Block in the editor

  • I have a site the uses the Neve Theme where I can hide the blog categories from the top of the page (where the title, date and author is shown) and I have then found the Post Categories Block in the Gutenberg editor so I can show the categories in the body of the blogpost.

    But I can’t figure out how to format the output – I can only have it as a list where I can chose the character that separates the categories.

    Since I have 4 hierarchies of categories I would like to show them on 4 separate lines (this blog is about hiking and the hierarchies is about area, distance, type and how long it takes).

    I want it to look something like this:

    • Area: Northern Denmark
    • Distance: 10-20 km
    • Type: Loop, Around a lake
    • Duration: 1 day

    I have looked for a plugin that could do what I want but haven’t found it and worry that I need to edit the PHP files to get what I want.

    Can some of you see something that I have missed in how to go about this?

  • The is a Categories List block that should display it as a list for you:

    Thanks Glen, I have seen that block also, but as far as I can see it shows all the categories of the blog with or without post-count depending of what you choose. Also its a widget more for a sidebar.

    What I’m looking for is to format the categories of a single blog post, preferably without having to poke around in the PHP-code myself.
