display: none;
}

if ( $displayPostMeta ) {

$post = $wp_query->post;
$dog=$post->ID;
$category = get_the_category( $dog );
$dog = $category[0]->cat_name;
$dog = get_cat_ID( $dog ); //show cat id number from its name like "Tricks" (child)
foreach (get_the_category() as $cat) { // yay shows parent category for each $dog there is
$parent = get_category($cat->category_parent);
$dog = $parent->cat_name;
}
$authorName = get_the_author_meta( 'user_nicename', $post->post_author );
