Use a custom location rule that overrides the ACF location rule for taxonomy https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/custom-location-rules/
// priority 20 runs after ACF built in filter
add_filter('acf/location/rule_match/taxonomy', 'acf_location_rules_match_taxonomy', 20, 3);
function acf_location_rules_match_taxonomy($match, $rule, $options) {
if ($rule['param'] == 'taxonomy' && !isset($_GET['tag_ID'])) {
// if the rule is for taxonomy but $_GET['tag_ID'] is not set
// then this is the main taxonomy page and not a term page
// set match to false
$match = false;
}
return $match;
}
I’m glad you brought this up, there are many times when I don’t want fields to show on this page and your question made me want to figure out how to do it.
