Hi,
I have a custom type (course) with a taxonomy associated (staff=.
I created an archive file and retrieved all the values of the course with "types_render_field".
I do not understand how to recover the data of the associated taxonomy. I used get_terms ('staff') but I can not print custom fields (email, resume, ...).
Can you help me?
thank you

Well - please refer to the following Doc that will help you how you can display the terms associated with post:
=> https://toolset.com/documentation/customizing-sites-using-php/creating-templates-single-custom-posts/#displaying-custom-taxonomy

To display the custom term field - you should use the Types API function: types_render_termmeta(). Please check the following Doc for related example:

I solved it like this (I do not know if I've done it correctly or there's a better method):

$staff_list = get_the_terms( $post->ID, 'staff');
foreach($staff_list as $st=>$st_id) {
$st_var = $st_id->to_array();
$st_term_meta = get_term_meta($st_var['term_id']);
echo $st_term_meta['email']:
}

You can also use the following way:

$staff_list = get_the_terms( $post->ID, 'staff');
foreach($staff_list as $st=>$st_id) {
$st_var = $st_id->to_array();
echo types_render_termmeta("email",array("term_id" =>$st_var['term_id']));
}
