Hi,

Using the
get_terms('taxonomy', $args);
function, how can I get the list of terms by querying against a custom field for the taxonomy?

For example I have a checkbox custom field for my taxonomy, how can I only retrieve the list of terms that have this checkbox ticked?

Thanks

Hi @aaronjpitts

Unfortunately, this is not possible.
WP does not contain a table for termmeta, so no join can be made.

Thanks

I’ll add this to the to-do and try to find a solution.
