   Hi, I would like to have custom post title styling for different categories in my child theme.

   For example: Post title on category a >> css: class .a
   Post title on category b >> css: class .b

   In order to do that, I think I have to filter thematic_postheader_posttitle so it generates custom class, and then styling each class in CSS.

   My code:

   function ruby_postheader_posttitle($posttitle){
   	if(in_category('cat')){
   		$posttitle = '<h2 class="catclass"><a href="';
   	    $posttitle .= apply_filters('the_permalink', get_permalink());
   	    $posttitle .= '" title="';
   	    $posttitle .= __('Permalink to ', 'thematic') . the_title_attribute('echo=0');
   	    $posttitle .= '" rel="bookmark">';
   	    $posttitle .= get_the_title();
   	    $posttitle .= "</a></h2>\n";
   		}
   	else if(in_category ('dog')){
   		$posttitle = '<h2 class="dogclass"><a href="';
   	    $posttitle .= apply_filters('the_permalink', get_permalink());
   	    $posttitle .= '" title="';
   	    $posttitle .= __('Permalink to ', 'thematic') . the_title_attribute('echo=0');
   	    $posttitle .= '" rel="bookmark">';
   	    $posttitle .= get_the_title();
   	    $posttitle .= "</a></h2>\n";
   		}
   	else{
   		return $posttitle;
   		}
   }?>
   <?php add_filter('thematic_postheader_posttitle', 'ruby_postheader_posttitle');
   ?>

   But I ended up with no title in both categories :P. What am I doing wrong?

   You don't have to write php code to do this: each post has the category css class already like this:

   <div class="post-1 post type-post hentry category-blog category-uncategorized" id="post-1"><h2 class="entry-title">Hello world!</h2>....

   Write CSS like this:

   div.category-uncategorized h2 {
   color: red;
   }

   div.category-cat h2 {
   color: white;
   }

   div.category-dog h2 {
   color: black;
   }

   Thank you!

   You are right. Just a little correction though, it is h1 instead of h2.. makes me wonder.. (I also thought it is suppose to be h2)
