Binding to post category on multisites

Hi,

I have a problem binding my custom fields to post category on multisite wordpress. It seems when I look at the code, after I have exported to PHP, that it is bound on the tag_ID number of the post category.

Like this:

'location' => array (
			array (
				array (
					'param' => 'post_category',
					'operator' => '==',
					'value' => '5',
					'order_no' => 0,
					'group_no' => 0,
				),
			),
		),

This is problem for me, because I can’t be sure that the post category has the same ID across the blogs.

Is there a way I can bind them on the category slug, or is there another solution to this.

hey jonashh

you can use this to get the id

$get_cat_ID = get_cat_ID( ‘cat_name’ );
