Displaying Taxonomy field

The taxonomy field type acts similarly to the Relationship field, but targets taxonomies and allows you to choose one or more taxonomy terms. By default, it displays the titles of the chosen items.

Advanced Views natively supports the following Taxonomy types:

  1. ACF: any Taxonomy field

  2. MetaBox: any Taxonomy, TaxonomyAdvanced field

  3. Pods: any Relationship field (for terms)

1. How to display a Taxonomy field

  1. Add any Taxonomy field

  2. Save the Layout, copy its embedding shortcode

  3. Embed Layout: paste the shortcode inside the target place

Advanced Views automatically creates HTML link markup for the chosen term(s). You can create a dedicated field Layout to display fields of the chosen post instead:

2. Displaying term details

Sometimes, instead of displaying the term as a link, you may need to display some fields of the selected term. To display term details, follow these steps:

  1. Create a ‘Term Details’ Layout: This Layout will be responsible for displaying term details. In the Fields tab, assign the term fields you want to display, then publish the Layout.

  2. Create a page Layout: Create a page Layout. In the Fields tab, add the target Taxonomy field, and assign 'Term Details' as a Field Layout, then publish the page Layout

  3. Embed page Layout: copy and paste the page Layout shortcode inside the target place

That's it! Now you can customize the Layout template to use the Taxonomy render options.

Use a Taxonomy field to 'categorize' content. Combine it with a Taxonomy filter to query and display all items from a specific term.
