I'm trying to pull all of the categories associated with a custom post type within a loop, but I'm not sure how to get it so automatically pulls all of the categories automatically from the associated post type?
My reason is that if a user wants to add/remove a category from the custom post type, I don't want to have to edit the template file to manually add or remove the category name.
I currently have this:
<?php $args = array( 'post_type' => 'rentals');
$loop = new WP_Query( $args ); ?>
<?php while ( $loop->have_posts() ) : $loop->the_post();?>
<div class="fg12 rentals">
<h2><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
<div class="info">
<?php category_description(); ?>
<a class="button" href="<?php the_field('rental_item_link') ?>">

</a>
</div>
</div>
<?php endwhile; wp_reset_query(); ?>
And I know if I add 'category_name' => 'cat-slug1, cat-slug2, etc...'
it will pull those specific categories, but I'm trying to avoid doing that manually in case someone wants to add or remove a specific category.
I'm also trying to get the category description as well, but I'm not sure if I am pulling that correctly either.
I hope that makes sense.
