Hi there, I was wondering if anyone could help me out!

I created a new custom field, that belongs to the post category. Nothing special..

Now, I’d like to echo out all the categories with their extra data on a page..

I tried this, but it’s not echoing out the extra data does anyone know what i’m doing wrong?

<?php
$taxonomy = 'category';
$tax_terms = get_terms($taxonomy);

foreach ($tax_terms as $tax_term) {
	echo  $tax_term->name . '<br/>';
	echo 'color: ' . the_field('color', $tax_term->term_id). '<br/>';
}
?>

Any hulp is greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!

Ben

Ok never mind, didn’t read the documentation well enough 🙂

Was printing the ID instead of category_id 😉
