Tell us what you are trying to do?
I'm trying to create a custom field with the field type -> taxonomy to populate this field with the taxonomy terms associated.
In ACF you can simply choose Field type: Taxonomy and after select which taxonomy to display in the custom field.
Is there a similar example that we can see?
Yes the screenshot linked. The custom field is a dropdown linked to the taxonomy by the field type-> taxonomy. If I changed the value in the dropdown and update the post, the taxonomy will changed accordingly to the custom field value.
Note that I don't want to use the checkbox on the side of the screen where the taxonomies are to select it, that's why I want it in a custom field.
