Tell us what you are trying to do?
I am trying to show the results which have been searched for.
Visitors can search via text search, or by clicking on a taxonomy 'coronahelpfor'
However, [wpv-search-term param='wpv-coronahelpfor'] shows the slug - I would prefer to show the Name.
For example, to show "Things to do" rather than "things-to-do"
Do you know how I can do this?

This is the code as it is currently -
<div class= "resultshere">Showing results for [wpv-search-term param='wpv_post_search'][wpv-search-term param='wpv-coronahelpfor']

Hello,

There isn't such kind of built-in feature within shortcode [wpv-search-term], see our document:
hidden link

You might consider custom codes, for example:
1) Create a custom shortcode with custom PHP function:
https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/add_shortcode/

2) In this PHP function:
Get the URL parameter "wpv-coronahelpfor" value:
hidden link
Use above value to get the term's information, and output the term's name:
https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/get_term_by/

For your reference.
