Hello @pixeldesignsuk

Am I correct in thinking that you are in fact looking for “Terms” of a “Taxonomy” and not actually the “Taxonomies” of a CPT?

If you are looking for “Taxonomy Terms” (as opposed to Taxonomies) which makes more sense if looking for the “slug”, then you could try this:

$field['choices'] = array();
$terms = get_terms( array(
  'taxonomy' => 'custom_taxonomy_name',
  'hide_empty' => false,
));

if ( $terms ) {
  foreach ( $terms as $term ) {
    $choices[$term->slug] = $term->slug . ' : ' . $term->name;
  }
}

Reference:

• get_terms WordPress function
• WP Terms Query arguments
• Taxonomies
