<?php the_category(‘,’ ); ?> without link?

<?php
foreach((get_the_category()) as $category) {
    echo $category->cat_name . ' ';
}
?>

Discussed here. Does that work for you?

worked perfectly! thanks!

hi there, i searched for the same thing and this worked for me too… but am i able to show the category in which the post is only? without the parent category…

This works great for stripping the link, but a cool feature in the_category() is being able to use a separating character that doesn’t echo on the last cat. Is there a workaround to make get_the_category() work like this?
