  Hello,

  <?php
  echo ( new \HivePress\Blocks\Part(
  				[
  					'path'    => 'listing-category/view/listing-category-item-count',
  					'context' => [ 'listing_category' => $listing_category ],
  				]
  			) )->render();
  ?>
  <?php echo esc_html( $listing_category->get_name() ); ?>

  ————————
  This code gives the name of the category/subcategory, but suppose I want to get the name of the parent category, then what should be done???
  ——————————
  Also, I am new to PHP, I don’t get what we are actually doing here, can you pls explain or give me some link where I can understand the above coding. This path and context above, I don’t get it, what is this.

  Hi,
  If you mean outputting child category titles you can try getting an array of categories this way:

  $listing_category->get_children()

  Sorry, there’s no easy way to guide on PHP and customizations if you’re not familiar with coding, if customizations beyond the available features are required I recommend hiring a developer with WP experience https://www.fiverr.com/categories/programming-tech/wordpress-services

  Thanks Ihor.

  This thing – $listing_category->get_name(), outputs category/sub-category name. But how can I output name of parent category for a subcategory, Because if B is subcategory of A, then “$listing_category->get_name()”, outputs B only, I want to output A also with that. [A is parent category]

  Please try using the parent category this way:

  $parent_category=$listing_category->get_parent();

  Then you can get its name in the same way:

  if($parent_category) {
      echo $parent_category->get_name();
  }

  I want to change this code to generate a parent category if exists [plugin template file] —-

  <?php
  // Exit if accessed directly.
  defined( 'ABSPATH' ) || exit;
  
  if ( $listing->get_categories__id() ) :
  	?>
  	<div class="hp-listing__categories hp-listing__category">
  		<?php foreach ( $listing->get_categories() as $category ) : ?>
  			<a>router->get_url( 'listing_category_view_page', [ 'listing_category_id' => $category->get_id() ] ) ); ?>"><?php
  			$current_cat = esc_html( $category->get_name() );
  			echo $current_cat;
  			?></a>
  		<?php endforeach; ?>
  	</div>
  	<?php
  endif;

  Please try using this function to get all the parents for a category https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/get_ancestors/ You can get the category IDs this way:

  $listing->get_category__id()

  The category taxonomy is hp_listing_category.

  Hope this helps.
