i needed similar 4 custom post type categories , worked out, i'm php novice may not best way works me.

outside loop.. used 'single_term_title name of custom post type category , assigned variable '$current_term', used if / else if statements... 

<?php $current_term = single_term_title("", false);   //cat name 1  if($current_term === 'name 1') { echo 'something'; }   //cat name 2 else if($current_term === 'name 2') { echo 'something'; }    //cat name 3 else if($current_term === 'name 3') { echo 'something'; }   //cat name 4 else if($current_term === 'name 4') { echo 'somehting'; }    //do nothing else { echo ''; } ?>
