    Still not easily possible?

    I’m running out of patients on this. Does anyone know of a simple way to highlight multiple categories in a list on single.php?

    My current code only brings up a single category, it uses wp_list_categories, intended for archive pages i know. Strange that there is not yet a function for the single post template. Or is there?

    <?php $catsy = get_the_category();
$myCat = $catsy[0]->cat_ID;
wp_list_categories(array(
'title_li' => '',
//ONE AT A TIME PLEASE 0_0
'current_category' => $myCat ?>

    It shouldn’t have to be a massive hack.
    Here’s one of the posts with only one category showing:

    There should be two.

    Behold, the solution…

    <?php
$cat_args = array(
  'orderby' => 'name',
  'order' => 'ASC'
);
$categories = get_categories($cat_args);
foreach($categories as $category) {
	if ( in_category( $category->term_id ) ) {
		?>
		<li class="cat-item current-cat cat-item-<?php echo $category->term_id; ?>"><a title="View all posts filed under <?php echo $category->name; ?>" href="<?php echo get_category_link( $category->term_id ); ?>"><?php echo $category->name; ?></a>
		</li>
		<?php
	} else {
		?>
		<li class="cat-item cat-item-<?php echo $category->term_id; ?>"><a title="View all posts filed under <?php echo $category->name; ?>" href="<?php echo get_category_link( $category->term_id ); ?>"><?php echo $category->name; ?></a>
		</li>
		<?php
	}
}
?>
