In a taxonomy-archive loop, how do I get the current taxonomy ?
I thought this should work : [wpv-taxonomy-slug]
But this field is empty for some reason.

example usage :
[mashup show="query" show_query="book=[wpv-taxonomy-slug]&posts_per_page=-1" poilist="true" ]

Hi ido,

You can use Views shortcode [wpv-post-taxonomy] Display the taxonomy for the current post, like this:
[wpv-post-taxonomy type="my-taxonomy" separator=", " format="link" show="name"]

If you need display current taxonomy in a WP loops, you can try create a shortcode for it.

How do I create a shortcode for it in WP loops ?

[Luo Yang]

You can try create a shortcode for it, like this:
1) put codes in your theme/functions.php
add_shortcode('current_taxonomy_slug', 'current_taxonomy_slug_func');
function current_taxonomy_slug_func(){
$term = get_queried_object();
$slug = $term->slug;
return $slug;
}
2) put the shortcode into your content
[current_taxonomy_slug]
