Highlight the Categories of the displayed Post

Resolved

Requested: 2 years and 1 day ago

Hello,

I recently activated ASM Pro on my website: https://aiml.com/. I need help with the following:

I want to highlight the categories of the displayed post. For ex: for this post: https://aiml.com/when-to-use-pca-vs-random-projection/, I want to highlight on the Category list, the category “Dimensionality Reduction”
How can I show the number of posts for each of the categories?
Decrease padding between list items. I am not sure where to add custom css and what custom css to add.

If it helps, I can create 3 different support requests.

Look forward to your help!

Thanks,

DenaG

Hi DenaG,

Looking at the provided website it seems you have already resolved items #2 and #3?
Please let me know if you still need assistance with those items.

For item #1:

You may add a custom current-menu-item CSS class to the assigned categories by adding the following filter to your active theme’s function.php file:

add_filter( 'category_css_class', function( $classes, $category ) { if ( is_singular() && has_term( $category->term_id, $category->taxonomy ) ) { $classes[] = 'current-menu-item'; } return $classes; }, 11, 2 );

Then any assigned categories will use the styles you defined in your menu for the current item.

Have a great rest of your weekend!
