Wordpress - List all the post's categories with custom code in the single page -

first of it's supposed used in single page. after single post want display categories post belongs to.

the basic code <?php the_category(' | '); ?> outputs simple link. have <?php echo get_the_category_list(); ?> outputs more specific code (http://codex.wordpress.org/function_reference/get_the_category_list):

<ul class="post-categories"> <li> <a href="http://myblog.com/category/business" title="view posts in business" rel="category tag">business</a> </li> </ul>

however need decompose code. example, want <a> tag before <li> tag. i've got code want, it's supposed display categories available in page, is:

<?php $categories = get_categories(); foreach($categories $category) { ?> <a href="<?php echo get_category_link($category->cat_id); ?>"><li><?php echo $category->name ?> <span class="lower">(<?php echo $category->count ?>)</span></li></a> <?php } ?>

any thought how can create work?

thanks!

you can utilize get_the_category() homecoming category objects can loop , them want.

$category = get_the_category( /* $post_id */ ); print_r($category); foreach($category $cat) { ?> <a href="<?php echo get_category_link( $cat->term_id ); ?>"><?php echo $cat->name; ?></a> <?php }
