Tell us what you are trying to do?
I am trying to display the relevant custom taxonomy term in each item of a dynamically generated grid.
Is there any documentation that you are following?
Yes, I have been looking through old support tickets with no success
Is there a similar example that we can see?
Yes, you can view the example on the homepage of the site in question (url in ticket).
On the site you will see various media titles being listed. On each there is "TV content" and "Film"
It should only be showing one of these.
I have created a "view" of the custom taxonomy displaying the [wpv-taxonomy-title]
But when I add a filter (Taxonomy set by current post) it returns a "No items found" resoponse.
The second is by using a child view. In your case you set the filter to "Taxonomy set by current post" which will list out the terms for the current post in a parent view, however in your case this isn't working.
Could you try the first method and let me know if it produces any results ?
Hi,
Thanks for the reply.
I did try that before with no luck. I have re-implemented it here so you can see the screenshot and navigate to the page.
On the test "xxx" shows up. Nothing comes through with that shortcode.
Open to trying any other suggestion.

I believe I understand what is happening here and there isn't much that I can do about this, it would appear to be a case where the shortcode isn't able to get the taxonomy from the posts being listed.
It can be a case where the dynamic source isn't providing an ID for the shortcode. What I recommend that you do is to get in touch with the WP Bakery team and check to see if they have a way to provide the ID as a shortcode using their dynamic content or a method to display custom taxonomies.
I see where they can display the default taxonomies but not custom ones.
