Parent Category only display

I need some help knowing if this is possible and if you could help with this solution. We need the blog homepage category listed within the square to only display the parent or root category. I have attached an image that should show what I’m needing on the front end.

This is located on this page:
http://healthyplace.com/2015backup36/index.php?option=com_easyblog&view=latest&Itemid=231

If you go into the backend of the site in EasyBlog > Categories all blogs should already be in a parent category via a subcategory.

The file for the template that controls this page on the front end is located here.
components/com_easyblog/themes/origami/blogs/latest/default.main.php

The table “d1pcu_easyblog_category” with parent_id = 0 will show the parent categories.

What I"m needing:
A function like this on lines 132-135 of that default.main.php file should be what I need:
if “d1pcu_easyblog_category” parent_id=0 then echo only that “d1pcu_easyblog_category” title.

Thanks for your help.
