You are not going to be able to do this without some coding.

where do you want to display it?

what are you trying to do?

If you could give me the snippet of the codes I can figure it out.

I want to display the category name on the header of the page that is rendered before the component.

Thanks!

I do not know the code,

You will have to query the database I believe,.


No reason to do all that though,

I would do it another way.

With module, etc.
