Added a wysiwyg field for the categories taxonomy. It’s not showing up. Media button shows up, but the editor doesn’t. Please reply ASAP as possible. Thanks

I’ve testing the wysiwyg field on category taxonomy and it’s working in both ACF4 & 5.

My guess is that there is some kind of interference from another plugin.

Do you have any other plugins on the site that effect the WYSIWYG editors on the site?

Did you get this solved? I have a custom taxonomy with several ACF attached to it. For some reason one of the fields, a WYSIWIG never shows up using get_field, and only ever shows null if I printr it. I have deactivated all plugins but nothing I have tried makes it display.

I actually solved my problem with WYSIWIG ACF not showing up on taxonomy with this code – basically having to pass the taxonomy and post id in the get_field parameter. This only seems to be necessary on the WYSIWIG field, all other field display with out this.

$queried_object = get_queried_object();
$taxonomy = $queried_object->taxonomy;
$term_id = $queried_object->term_id;
$post_id = $taxonomy . '_' . $term_id;

$custom_field = get_field('MY-ACF-FIELD-NAME', $post_id);
echo $custom_field;
