Get taxonomy term custom fields value

[vladkucherov]

Hi,

I searched over your framework, And I couldn't find anywhere a method to fetch the custom fields I created for taxonomy term.

I have a taxonomy game and I added it this field:

class Fields_Settings_TaxonomyField extends AdminPageFramework_TaxonomyField {

    public function setUp() {
        $this->addSettingFields(
            array(
                'field_id'      => 'url',
                'type'          => 'text',
                'title'         => __( 'Destination URL', 'topfive' ),
            )
        );
    }

}

The field is working and saving like it should, but how I can get the data stored? I couldn't find any method, I didn't find anything in an example, and it looks like you are not using any filter to add anything the a term from the custom fields.

from your code:

    public function _replyToDetermineToLoad($oScreen) {
        if (!$this->_isInThePage()) {
            return;
        }
        $this->_setUp();
        $this->oUtil->addAndDoAction($this, "set_up_{$this->oProp->sClassName}", $this);
        $this->oProp->_bSetupLoaded = true;
        add_action('current_screen', array($this, '_replyToRegisterFormElements'), 20);
        foreach ($this->oProp->aTaxonomySlugs as $__sTaxonomySlug) {
            add_action("created_{$__sTaxonomySlug}", array($this, '_replyToValidateOptions'), 10, 2);
            add_action("edited_{$__sTaxonomySlug}", array($this, '_replyToValidateOptions'), 10, 2);
            add_action("{$__sTaxonomySlug}_add_form_fields", array($this, '_replyToPrintFieldsWOTableRows'));
            add_action("{$__sTaxonomySlug}_edit_form_fields", array($this, '_replyToPrintFieldsWithTableRows'));
            add_filter("manage_edit-{$__sTaxonomySlug}_columns", array($this, '_replyToManageColumns'), 10, 1);
            add_filter("manage_edit-{$__sTaxonomySlug}_sortable_columns", array($this, '_replyToSetSortableColumns'));
            add_action("manage_{$__sTaxonomySlug}_custom_column", array($this, '_replyToPrintColumnCell'), 10, 3);
        }
    }

Everything looks to be related to the admin area - which is great. But what if I need the data stored from within a look using get_term() WP function?

Please advice

(Sorry for lots of questions, things are not quite clear to me)

Hi,

$aOptions = get_option( 'YourClassNameHere' );

Don't worry about asking lots of questions. They should help other users. Just make sure they are clear.

@michaeluno Hi,

Don't you think this is something that should work similar to the posts? I mean maybe you should add filter to the term object to add additional attributes by the custom fields?

$term->custom_var

instead of:

$custom_vars[$term->term_id]['custom_var']

What do you think? This should be something easy to do I think. Want me to add this?

It is impossible to tell when and where the site of the user uses a taxonomy. The framework is not designed to be loaded in every single page load, after all.

I don't see it is necessary. However, if you really think it is useful, you may show how you do it by requesting a pull.

Closing the topic as the initially addressed problem seems to be resolved.
