getting category headers on the index page

  • I’m trying to get some category headers in a similar fashion to the thinkprogress.org site. I’m working on a site where multiple posts from multiple locations are going to be published and I’d like to identify the different locations right above the post title.

    It doesn’t seem like it would be that hard, but for the life of me I seem to be missing it. Any help is appreciated.

  • You just want a post’s category to appear above the title, right? You should be able to do that pretty easily by modifying the contents of The Loop for your theme so the_category tag appears on the line before the_title.

    For more information, read Stepping Into Template Tags and The Loop. That should be enough to get you started.

    The appearance of the category name (or any other content, for that matter) depends on styles applied to it, so you’d have to be pretty handy with CSS to get it to look like what you see on thinkprogress.org, if that’s what you’re after.

    Good luck!
