    Hi,

    Is it possible to display only the primary category of a post? This is a feature I believe is added with the Yoast plugin. For example, I have a post with 2 categories:

    Colombia (Primary category)
    Hotels

    I'm using the following code in 'MB Views':

    {{ mb.get_the_term_list( post.ID, 'category', '', ', ' ) }}

    Hope you can help,
    Thanks Roderick

    Hi Roderick,

    You can follow this topic to know how to get Yoast primary term by a function of Yoast yoast_get_primary_term() then replace it with the WordPress function get_the_term_list()

    Hope that helps.

    Thanks for the advise! I didn't manage to exactly how you explained, as It's too difficult for me. But I got it to work via the extra code and shortcode 🙂
