get taxonomy terms code example

Example 1: get taxonomy name in singhle post

// RETRIVE TERM SLUG ( for single.php or template-part )

$terms = get_the_terms( $post->ID, 'your-taxonomy' );
if ( !empty( $terms ) ){
    // get the first term
    $term = array_shift( $terms );

Example 2: wordpress get terms by taxonomy

You need to pass an additional argument to get_terms(). The default is to hide
"empty" terms-- terms which are assigned to no posts.

$terms = get_terms([
    'taxonomy' => $taxonomy,
    'hide_empty' => false,
]);

Example 3: wordpress get current taxonomy

$term = get_term_by( 'slug', get_query_var( 'term' ), get_query_var( 'taxonomy' ) );
echo $term->name; // will show the name
echo $term->slug; // will show the slug
