Register custom taxonomies for CPT. This allows Wordpress to assign categories only CPT and then you can show these categories.
// Create CPT specific categories
function tr_create_my_taxonomy() {
register_taxonomy(
'tenants-categories', ---- this is important
'tenants',
array(
'label' => __( 'Categories' ),
'rewrite' => array( 'slug' => 'tenants-categories' ),
'hierarchical' => true,
)
);
}
add_action( 'init', 'tr_create_my_taxonomy' );
<?php
$terms = get_the_terms( $post->ID , 'tenants-categories' );
foreach ( $terms as $term ) {
echo $term->name;
}
?>
