[Resolved] Taxonomy count snippet

Hi

I am using a code snippet I found on Toolset's forum to count taxonomy for a post.

The code is below this used to work but since updates either by Toolset or WordPress itself it no longer works:

function count_post_terms( $atts ) {
    // Attributes
    $atts = shortcode_atts(
        array(
            'post_id' => '',
            'taxonomy' => '',
        ),
        $atts
    );
    $terms = wp_get_post_terms( $atts['post_id'], $atts['taxonomy']);
    return count($terms);
}
add_shortcode( 'count_post_terms', 'count_post_terms' );

Here is where I am using the shortcode:

[wpv-conditional if="( [count_post_terms post_id='[wpv-post-id]' taxonomy='country'] gte 4 ) AND ( [count_post_terms post_id='[wpv-post-id]' taxonomy='country'] lt 40 )"]
<div class="tooltip">[count_post_terms post_id='[wpv-post-id]' taxonomy='country'] Countries<span class="tooltiptext">[wpv-post-taxonomy type="country" format="slug"]</span></div>
[/wpv-conditional] 

[wpv-conditional if="( [count_post_terms post_id='[wpv-post-id]' taxonomy='country'] gte 40 )"]
<div class="tooltip">[count_post_terms post_id='[wpv-post-id]' taxonomy='country'] Countries<span class="tooltiptext">See Offer Page</span></div>
[/wpv-conditional]

When I debugged the results for when I used the above in a Toolset conditional it always give the result of 0.

Any ideas how we can fix?

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Can you please make sure that the shortcode "count_post_terms " is registered at:
=> Toolset => Settings => Front-end Content tab => Third-party shortcode arguments

More info:
=> https://toolset.com/documentation/legacy-features/views-plugin/shortcodes-within-shortcodes/#third-party-shortcode-arguments

If the shortcode is already registered then I will require to debug and you will require to share information where you added the shortcode on what page/post, the link of problem URL and access details.

*** Please make a FULL BACKUP of your database and website.***
I would also eventually need to request temporary access (WP-Admin and FTP) to your site. Preferably to a test site where the problem has been replicated if possible in order to be of better help and check if some configurations might need to be changed.

I have set the next reply to private which means only you and I have access to it.

I've adjusted the shortcode you added as given under:

function count_post_terms( $atts ) {
  global $post;
    // Attributes
    $atts = shortcode_atts(
        array(
            'post_id' => '',
            'taxonomy' => '',
        ),
        $atts
    );
  
 
    $terms = wp_get_object_terms( $post->ID, $atts['taxonomy']);
    return count($terms);
}
add_shortcode( 'count_post_terms', 'count_post_terms' );

Can you please confirm now you can see the results as expected:
=> hidden link
