hey,
i have taxonomy called "free tags", with the slug "free-tags".
under this, i have many terms. let say, for example's sake: "wisdom", "ignorance", "stupidity".
archive pages have this URL:
versteckter Link
versteckter Link
versteckter Link

how would i display the parent taxonomy slug (e.g in this case: "free-tags") in the term's archive page? what's the right shortcode?

I need this because I want to create a link within the archive page to a search view. something like:

<a href="<em><u>versteckter Link</u></em> info='slug']&wpv_filter_submit=SUBMIT&wpv_sort_orderby=post_title&wpv_sort_order=asc">

thx!!

Hello,

There isn't such kind of built-in feature within Toolset, it needs custom codes, for example:
1) Add below codes into your theme file functions.php:

add_shortcode('parent_term_info', function($atts, $content){
	$atts = shortcode_atts( array(
		'tax' => '',
		'output' => 'slug'
	), $atts );
	$res = '';
	$termObj = get_queried_object();
	if(isset($termObj->parent) && !empty($atts['tax'])){
		$parent_term = get_term( $termObj->parent, $atts['tax'], ARRAY_A);
		if(isset($parent_term[$atts['output']])){
			$res = $parent_term[$atts['output']];
		}
	}
	return $res;
});

2) Dashboard-> Toolset-> Front-end Content, in section "Third-party shortcode arguments", add above shortcode name: parent_term_info

3) Use the shortcode to setup the link, like this:

<a href="<em><u>versteckter Link</u></em> tax="category"]&wpv_filter_submit=SUBMIT&wpv_sort_orderby=post_title&wpv_sort_order=asc">[parent_term_info tax="category" output="name"]</a>

Please replace "category" with your custom taxonomy slug

Hey Luo!
Thanks for the code 🙂
I need the "tax" to be the current archive's parent taxonomy (I'm placing the link in the archive view of ALL taxonomies).
Will that be possible?
Thanks!

Yes, it is possible, you can change the PHP codes as below:

add_shortcode('parent_term_info', function($atts, $content){
	$atts = shortcode_atts( array(
		'output' => 'slug'
	), $atts );
	$res = '';
	$termObj = get_queried_object();
	if(isset($termObj->parent) && isset($termObj->taxonomy) ){
		$parent_term = get_term( $termObj->parent, $termObj->taxonomy, ARRAY_A);
		if(isset($parent_term[$atts['output']])){
			$res = $parent_term[$atts['output']];
		}
	}
	return $res;
});

And use above shortcode like this:
slug: [parent_term_info output="slug"]
name: [parent_term_info output="name"]

Don't forget step 2)
Dashboard-> Toolset-> Front-end Content, in section "Third-party shortcode arguments", add above shortcode name: parent_term_info

Oh, and also - this link:

<em><u>versteckter Link</u></em>

opens the page and shows the view, but i'm getting all results and they are not filtered by the tag.

[Luo Yang]

Please test as I mentioned above:
slug: [parent_term_info output="slug"]
name: [parent_term_info output="name"]

Make sure they output correct results.

If they do output courrect results, you will need setup the link manually according to your website settings.

If you need more assistance for it please provide a copy of your website, also point out the problem page URL and view URL, I need to test and debug it in my localhost, thanks

thx, but the archive page comesout blank with the code in it:

<a href="<em><u>versteckter Link</u></em> output='slug']=[wpv-taxonomy-archive info='slug']&wpv_filter_submit=%D7%97%D7%99%D7%A4%D7%95%D7%A9&wpv_sort_orderby=post_title&wpv_sort_order=asc">הצגה על גבי מפה</a>

but I mananged to get this done by using jQuery:

  $(".maptag").click(function() {
    var url = $(location).attr('href').split('/');
    var taxslug = url[url.length-2];
    var archiveslug = url[url.length-3]
    window.location.href = "<em><u>versteckter Link</u></em>"+archiveslug+"%5B%5D="+taxslug+"&wpv_filter_submit=%D7%97%D7%99%D7%A4%D7%95%D7%A9&&wpv_filter_submit=%D7%97%D7%99%D7%A4%D7%95%D7%A9&wpv_sort_orderby=post_title&wpv_sort_order=asc";
    return false;
  });
