显示带样式的类别

Question

I am building my own Wordpress theme for a client. I want to display the categories, but with some styling.

This is a screenshot of what I would like to achieve using categories: http://imgur.com/mtJPxMh (In these screenshots "Behang" and "Wanddecoraties" are categories being displayed.)

I already created categories within Wordpress and made category.php. It works when I use wp_list_categories( $args ); to display a list of categories. But I can't figure out how to add styling and HTML to each category (also a thumbnail).

Thank you for your help!

Answer 1

Try to use a get_categories( $args ) function. The function returns an array of categories specifed by passed parameters. After assigned it to the variable you can iterate over items:

$categories = get_categories();
foreach($categories as $category){
    echo $category->name;
}
