(I hope, I chose the right subforum. If not, please move.)

My question: How do I retrieve the category of an instance of modElement?

Either the ID:
```
$categoryId = $element->get('category');
```
Or the object:
```
$category = $element->getOne('Category');
```

Ah OK, thank you.
It’s a bit difficult to find out via the API-docs as the inherited methods are not listed.
