Show custom taxonomy on custom post type page

Hi all,

Would love some help on a website I’m currently building because I seem to not get something to work. The website has a custom post type ‘evenement‘. I have created a custom taxonomy ‘locatie‘ and last but not least I have made a Field group item ‘evenement_locatie‘, linked to the custom taxonomy.

I made a template for that show’s a single evenement post, that show’s the custom fields which I get with this code


<p><?php the_field("event_startdate"); ?><br> om <?php the_field("event_starttime"); ?></p>


This works fine for all fields, however I can’t seem to load the custom taxomony, and I tried all codes that I could find online. This is the code I’m currently using:

<?php
$term = get_field('evenement_locatie'); if( $term ): ?> <h2><?php echo esc_html( $term->name ); ?>test</h2> <p><?php echo esc_html( $term->description ); ?></p> <?php endif; ?>


And I have also tried


<?php echo get_field('evenement_locatie', get_queried_object()); ?>


Also tried to use the get_term function, but I can’t figure out how to get it working.
I also trying using get_field(‘locatie’) and that does not work as well.

My goal is to show the taxonomy title, and the description, but I’ve tried for hours now to get something. Also the WP_DEBUG is not giving me any error’s as well, so don’t know how to continue.

Any tips or tricks?
Thanks in advance!

Someone on StackOverflow helped me out! This is the answer

<?php
$terms = get_the_terms(get_the_ID(), 'locatie'); // Get the terms associated with the post
if ($terms && !is_wp_error($terms)) :
    foreach ($terms as $term) : ?>
        <h2><?php echo esc_html($term->name); ?></h2>
        <p><?php echo esc_html($term->description); ?></p>
    <?php endforeach;
endif;
?>
