I wrote the following lines of code. It shows a dropdown menu with all available Wordpress categorys in the Wordpress customizer and can output the category slug. But instead of the slug I want to output the category id. Does anyone have an idea how to realize that?

$categories = get_categories();

$cats = array();
$i = 0;
foreach($categories as $category){
    if($i==0){
        $default = $category->slug;
        $i++;
    }
    $cats[$category->slug] = $category->name;
}

$wp_customize->add_setting('wptimes_homepage_featured_category', array(
    'default'        => $default
));

$wp_customize->add_control(new WP_Customize_Control($wp_customize, 'wptimes_homepage_featured_category', array(
    'label' => 'Hervorgehobene Kategorie',
    'description' => 'Wähle hier die Kategorie aus, die du auf der Startseite hervorheben möchtest.',
    'section' => 'wptimes_homepage',
    'settings' => 'wptimes_homepage_featured_category',
    'type'    => 'select',
    'choices' => $cats
)));

Reset to default 0

In your foreach loop just do a quick print_r($category) to see all available options.

Than you will see that you can use $category->term_id to get the ID of the term/category, instead of $category->slug.

So for example, by using your code from above:

$categories = get_categories();

$cats = array();
$i = 0;

foreach( $categories as $category ) {

    // uncomment to see all $category data
    #print_r($category);

    if( $i == 0 ){

        $default = $category->term_id;
        $i++;

    }
    $cats[$category->term_id] = $category->name;
} 

print_r($cats);
// Prints for example: Array ( [12] => Child-Cat [2] => Parent-Cat [1] => Uncategorized )

I have a solution to this

  1. First create section
// FRONT Page Settings settings.
$wp_customize->add_section(
  'betacoders_theme_front_page_options',
  array(
    'title'       => __('
