get the current category from permalink structure
If a post has different categories it seems to be hard to get the chosen category…. The solution:
$currentCat= get_query_var(“cat”);
$allCats= get_the_category();
foreach ($allCats as $cat){
if ($cat->cat_ID ==$currentCat){
$currentCat=$cat;
continue;
}
}
now you have the current category object…
