This is my filter function. Its not working. Here category is the custom field with taxonomy type and its called category. It is supposed to pull all categories from “product_cat”.
add_filter('acf/fields/taxonomy/wp_list_categories/name=category', 'exclude_taxonomy_args', 10, 2);
function exclude_taxonomy_args( $args, $field ) {
$args['exclude'] = array(19,27,28); //the IDs of the excluded terms
return $args;
}
After adding this, I still see the categories mentioned in the exclude above.
