Hi. Viewed lots of topics, but still didn’t found an answer.
So, I have custom post type “flat4” and taxonomy “floor4”. On Front page I’m calling get_categories() and looping through taxonomy to get link and other stuff. I have acf to this taxonomy, and I need to output it in loop. Found this code: <?php the_field(‘hover’,’floor4_’ . $cat->term_id); ?>, but it’s not working.
Can you please help me with it?
What about:
<?php
$term = get_field(‘hover’,’floor4_’ . $cat->term_id);
echo $term;
Code untested and assume $cat->term_id has a value
if you echo $cat->term_id;
does it show a value? If so, is it the right one?
I assume ‘hover’ is the taxonomy name?
yes, echo $cat->term_id;
returns correct value.
‘hover’ – is an acf field name, ‘floor4’ – a taxonomy which has a ‘hover’ value
What code do you have?
Maybe I’ve misunderstood.
This loops categories:
<?php
$categories = get_categories( array(
'orderby' => 'name',
'order' => 'ASC'
) );
foreach( $categories as $category ) {
$category_link = sprintf(
'<a href="%1$s" alt="%2$s">%3$s</a>',
esc_url( get_category_link( $category->term_id ) ),
esc_attr( sprintf( __( 'View all posts in %s', 'textdomain' ), $category->name ) ),
esc_html( $category->name )
);
echo '<p>' . sprintf( esc_html__( 'Category: %s', 'textdomain' ), $category_link ) . '</p> ';
echo '<p>' . sprintf( esc_html__( 'Description: %s', 'textdomain' ), $category->description ) . '</p>';
echo '<p>' . sprintf( esc_html__( 'Post Count: %s', 'textdomain' ), $category->count ) . '</p>';
}
This loops taxonomies:
<?php if( $categories = get_terms( array( 'taxonomy' => 'floor4' ) ) ) :
foreach( $categories as $cat) :
$hover= get_field('hover', 'term_' .$cat->term_id );?>
<?php echo $hover; ?>
<?php endforeach;
endif;
?>
i used get_categories(), changed to get_terms(), but still get_field(‘hover’, ‘term_’ .$cat->term_id ) doesn’t return any value
Can you show your code please?
And to clarify, the taxonomy is called floor4
This is linked to a CPT of flat4
The ACF field is called hover and it’s this value you’re trying to get?
Does this work:
global $wp_query;
$paged = get_query_var('paged') ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
$args = array(
'posts_per_page' => -1,
'post_type' => 'flat4',
'paged' => $paged,
'fields' => 'ids'
);
$wp_query = new WP_Query($args);
if ($wp_query->have_posts()) :
while ($wp_query->have_posts()) : $wp_query->the_post();
$taxonomies = get_terms( array(
'taxonomy' => 'floor4',
'hide_empty' => false
) );
if ( !empty($taxonomies) ) :
foreach( $taxonomies as $category ) {
$hover= get_field('hover', 'term_' .$category->term_id );
echo $hover;
}
endif;
endwhile;
endif; wp_reset_query();
I’m sorry, found my mistake: the field I called was in a group field.
All works. Thank you for support.
