Hi, building single term page, I’m trying to show an image field of a term in a custom taxonomy.

Taxonomy: ‘personas’
ACF image field: ‘fotopersonas’
URL: ‘http://localhost:3000/personas/my_term/’
Template: ‘taxonomy-personas.php’

This is the template content:

get_the_archive_title();
// I WANT TO GET HERE THE ACF IMAGE FIELD:
$foto = get_field('fotopersona', $term);
echo $foto;

Also, I tried:

$term_object = get_queried_object();
print_r($term_object);
$foto = get_field('fotopersona', $term_object->slug);
echo $foto;

With same results.

Things that can help:

When var_dump: $foto, I get:
/srv/www/soux-calvo.dev/current/web/app/themes/sc/taxonomy-personas.php:8:boolean false (I don’t know why. This term has its field filled with an image).

WHY?
why can not I recover de ACF? In other templates with custom query, I can get the same field without problems.

When
$term_object = get_queried_object();
var_dump($term_object);

I get:

object(WP_Term)[3177]
  public 'term_id' => int 4
  public 'name' => string 'Una Persona' (length=11)
  public 'slug' => string 'una-persona' (length=11)
  public 'term_group' => int 0
  public 'term_taxonomy_id' => int 4
  public 'taxonomy' => string 'personas' (length=8)
  public 'description' => string '' (length=0)
  public 'parent' => int 0
  public 'count' => int 2
  public 'filter' => string 'raw' (length=3)

Thanks!

I forget to mention: any attempt to get_field described above returns nothing.

Another clue:

var_dump(get_fields($term_object->term_id));

Returns:

/srv/www/soux-calvo.dev/current/web/app/themes/sc/taxonomy-p‌​ersonas.php:10:boole‌​an false

$foto = get_field('fotopersona', 'personas'.'_'.$term_object->term_id);
