This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
How to output the taxonomy term name or slug on a taxonomy archive page.
Solution:
Views doesn't have a shortcode for this (the context for the wpv-taxonomy- shortcodes are taxonomy Views and the wpv-post-taxonomy shortcode used on an archive will output the terms of the first post shown in the archive, not of the archive itself).
i have a term field for tax ,
i created views for that and it load fine in the category archive page [single category] but when it come to the main archive page the term is not picking the value ,
what could be the issue ?
i need the term raw value for styling . ive added the style in the loop editor template,
i think i need to load this into a loop. i did get the raw value if i use the code " [wpv-view name="tax-term-tax-color-code-view" cached="off"]" but i need the raw value of the output to use inside the styling .
I don't think I have credentials for this site, I went back through our recent tickets, but I think the credentials I have are for another site on your network.
You have a term custom field "tax color" which is available to the dir and XXXX Blog Category taxonomies (screenshot).
Some but not all of your XXXX Blog Categories have a value set for this term field (screenshot).
But the links you shared where it is/is not working are tag archives.
hidden link is the archive for the "keto" tag.
The tags do not have the tax color term field available to them, and—sure enough—editing the keto tag shows there is no associated tax color field.
In the Layout for the XXXX Blog tag archive you are trying to output the wpcf-rise-blog-tag custom field but I'm not sure there is any such thing.
And the discussion above about the clean output of a View seems to be a red herring, because you are not using a View on this archive page as far as I can tell.
