 * Hello,
 * In order to display the categories and child categories of each post, I am using
   this script (find there: [http://wordpress.org/support/topic/390397?replies=9](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/390397?replies=9)):
 *     ```
       <?php
       $args=array('orderby' => 'none');
       $terms = wp_get_post_terms( $post->ID , 'category', $args);
       foreach($terms as $term) {
         echo '<a href="' . esc_attr(get_term_link($term, 'category')) . '" title="' . sprintf( __( "View all posts in %s" ), $term->name ) . '" ' . '>' . $term->name.'</a> ';
       }
       ?>
       ```
   
 * I want to add properly a separator, any ideas ?
 * Thanks!

 * If you used something like:
 * `echo '<a class="mycatlist" href="' . esc_attr(get_term_link($term, 'category')).'"
   title="' . sprintf( __( "View all posts in %s" ), $term->name ) . '" ' . '>' .
   $term->name.'</a> ';`
 * you could then add a border-separator using CSS:
 * `.mycatlist {border-bottom:1px solid #999;}`

 * Thanks for this answer.
 * It could be a way but ideally I would like to separate the category like this:
   
   cat-name_1 + cat-name_2 + cat-name3

 * Do you literally want to add a “+” sign between each link? Or have I misunderstood?

 * Yes I want literally add a “+” or “//” between each link.
    There is a way adding
   like that : `echo '<a href="' . esc_attr(get_term_link($term, 'category')) . '"
   title="' . sprintf( __( "View all posts in %s" ), $term->name ) . '" ' . '>' .
   $term->name.'</a> + ';`
 * But after the result is :
    cat-name_1 + cat-name_2 + cat-name3 +

 * Try:
 *     ```
       <?php
       $args=array('orderby' => 'none');
       $terms = wp_get_post_terms( $post->ID , 'category', $args);
       $t = count($terms);
       $c = 0;
       foreach($terms as $term) {
         $c++;
         echo '<a href="' . esc_attr(get_term_link($term, 'category')) . '" title="' . sprintf( __( "View all posts in %s" ), $term->name ) . '" ' . '>' . $term->name.'</a> ';
         if($c < $t ) echo ' + ';
       }
       ?>
       ```
