So here is my scenario. I’d love some help getting my brain unstuck. I have a CPT and a Taxonomy. That taxonomy has custom fields. I’m trying to display the custom fields from the taxonomy on the CPT.
An example. I have a business directory (CPT), each business has an owner (TAX). On the business listing, I want to pull in the owner information.
I’m unsure on how to query to get this information correctly.
The first thing you need to do is get the term in the taxonomy that the post is in
$terms = get_object_terms($post->ID, 'TAXONOMY SLUG HERE');
this will return an array of terms that the post is in, assuming there is only one
$term = $terms[0];
now you can use this to get the fields from the term
$value = get_field('field on term/taxonomy', 'term_'.$term->term_id;);

Sorry, that should be wp_get_object_terms()' and there is an extra;` probably causing an error in the last bit of code.
But this is basically what you need to do. To get the field from the term/taxonomy you need to provide ACF with the right $post_id value. See: https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/adding-fields-taxonomy-term/
