title: Get The Category Name & Category Link Inside The Loop In WordPress
body: <p>Is there a way to get the name of the category and the link to the category page separately <strong>inside the wordpress loop</strong>. I don't have the id of the category either and I wanna display images instead of category names therefore the_category() doesn't work for me.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
  
  <p>Appreciate all the answers..</p>
