[Resolved] Conditional display if current term page is from a specific taxonomy

Hello,
I have an Archive page applied to several taxonomies.
In it, I'd like to use the conditional display in order to show or hide specific informations depending on the current term's taxonomy.
But I still haven't found any shortcode that would allow me to do this. Is there one ?
Thank you.

There is a built-in WordPress function called is_tax that you can use for this purpose in a conditional. You must register is_tax in Toolset > Settings > Front-end Content > Functions inside conditional evaluations to use it in a conditional. Here is the documentation for is_tax:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Conditional_Tags#is_tax

This would be true if the category taxonomy archive is being displayed:

is_tax('category')

Well... in fact it doesn't seem to work 🙁

Wouldn't this be the syntax ?

[wpv-conditional if="( $(is_tax('auteur')) ne 'true' )"]<div class="form-group">
	<label for="wpv-auteur">[wpml-string context="wpv-views"]Auteurs[/wpml-string]</label>
	[wpv-control-post-taxonomy taxonomy="auteur" type="multi-select" url_param="wpv-auteur"]
</div>[/wpv-conditional]

It should be like this:

[wpv-conditional if="( is_tax('auteur') )"]
...

...but it doesn't seem to be working in my local tests. Let me ask 2nd tier for some additional information here.

I forgot about this:
This is important because you should always set the optional parameters for your functions when you use them inside wpv-conditional shortcodes. If you do not set the optional parameters in your function, they will be passed as those described above, so it may have unexpected results.
From the documentation here: https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/views/conditional-html-output-in-views/using-custom-functions-in-conditions/#custom-functions

To fix the code, you must include null as the 2nd parameter of the is_tax function:

[wpv-conditional if="( is_tax('auteur', null) eq '1' )"]
... this is the auteur taxonomy archive...
[/wpv-conditional]
