Hi, I’m trying to display an image in the product category, I have this code in my functions.php:
if ( is_product_category() ) {
// vars
$queried_object = get_queried_object();
$taxonomy = $queried_object->taxonomy;
$term_id = $queried_object->term_id;
$foto = get_field( 'foto', $queried_object );
$foto = get_field( 'foto', $taxonomy . '_' . $term_id );
if( get_field('foto') ) {
echo '<div class="cat-banner"><img src="' . $foto . '"/></div>';
}
}
My ACF field is set to IMAGE URL, but I also tried IMAGE OBJECT with no success.
I appreciate any guide with this.
Thanks.
Hi,
Actually, if you want to use get_field() method outside a WP loop, then you have to specify the $post_id as a second argument in the method get_field( $fieldname, $post_id).
Ok, just $post_id or that should be replaced with some specific data?
Thanks!
actually, what you have in your code here, either of them, should work if the image is added to the category.
$foto = get_field( 'foto', $queried_object );
$foto = get_field( 'foto', $taxonomy . '_' . $term_id );
but this will be false since it’s not using one of the two values for post ID from above
if( get_field('foto') ) {
pick one of the first two and use it for all acf calls
That worked, in case this helps somebody else:
if ( is_product_category() ) {
// vars
$queried_object = get_queried_object();
$taxonomy = $queried_object->taxonomy;
$term_id = $queried_object->term_id;
$foto = get_field( 'foto', $queried_object );
$foto = get_field( 'foto', $taxonomy . '_' . $term_id );
if( get_field('foto', $taxonomy . '_' . $term_id) ) {
echo '<div class="cat-banner"><img src="' . $foto . '"/></div>';
}
}
Hello maira,
I am trying to display the image but its not. is there any other settings?
Thanks
Hi there,
Make sure your field name is $foto or replace that part of the code with your own field name.
Thanks for reply maira,
Yes the field name is $foto. but its not working.
Actually i want to add a label on the Product category images like this
http://prntscr.com/gefwfd
I have set the setting below way…
1. Set file name $foto
2. Return Value set to Image URL http://prntscr.com/geft8t
3. set rule, Taxonomy Term -> is equal to -> Product Categories
http://prntscr.com/gefrjw
4. The Image showing ok on the product category fields http://prntscr.com/geg1s2
5. added your code to functions.php
if ( is_product_category() ) {
// vars
$queried_object = get_queried_object();
$taxonomy = $queried_object->taxonomy;
$term_id = $queried_object->term_id;
$foto = get_field( 'foto', $queried_object );
$foto = get_field( 'foto', $taxonomy . '_' . $term_id );
if( get_field('foto', $taxonomy . '_' . $term_id) ) {
echo '<div class="cat-banner">
</div>';
}
}
i am a newbee, Sorry for bothering you. Would you like to suggest me what else need to do.
Thanks in advance
Oh ok, then this code won’t work because what this does is to display a banner image in the product Category page, as in website-url/product-category/computers, is different to what you want to do.
In this case, I’d use a plugin to add custom badges, I’ve used this one and it works ok.
ohh i see, i will check it
anyway Thanks..
Hi Maira,
I want to add different feature image for different product category. I am using Maisha theme.
I used your code but it is not working. I am very new to PHP. And i just used your code as it is. Can you please help me figure out what I am doing wrong.
if ( is_product_category() ) {
// vars
$queried_object = get_queried_object();
$taxonomy = $queried_object->taxonomy;
$term_id = $queried_object->term_id;
$foto = get_field( ‘foto’, $queried_object );
$foto = get_field( ‘foto’, $taxonomy . ‘_’ . $term_id );
if( get_field(‘foto’, $taxonomy . ‘_’ . $term_id) ) {
echo ‘<div class=”cat-banner”></div>’;
}
}
I did not get field foto. Could you please explain it more. In previous post you said change it or make sure field name is same . What field name are we talking about here.
Sorry I forgot to mention that iIts a word press site and I have created a child theme.
