I am trying to:
Show taxonomy fields on the corresponding archive page. Especially the corresponding taxonomy page title.

I visited this URL:
hidden link

I expected to see:
The current taxonomy title, corresponding image field and description to show.

Instead, I got:
it showing multiple results.

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

What if you try to add shortcode [wpv-taxonomy-title] outside your taxonomy loop to dispaly taxonomy title?

[janelY]

Thank you for your reply. I tried adding it. The header tag is there but nothing is populating inside. (screenshots attached)

Also, is it possible to display the taxonomy fields and description? I am able to show it but it pulls in others also, but I'm not sure why. In the picture I attached before, it is the archive page for "Build Strong Organizations" but it also showing the description and taxonomy field for "Engage your Community". There are 5 other categories in this taxonomy.

Can I have problem URL and temporary 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 would additionally need your permission to de- and re-activate Plugins and the Theme, and to change configurations on the site. This is also a reason the backup is really important. If you agree to this, please use the form fields I have enabled below to provide temporary access details (wp-admin and FTP).

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

Dear Janel,

I tried the access codes you provided in the "Private message", it does not work, I get this error message:
Incorrect Password

Please check it. thanks

[janelY]

I apologize, I updated my last message with the corrected password. Thank you.

[Luo Yang]

thanks for the details, I assume we area talking about the layout "Focus Area" in your website, I have add a visual editor cell in it, with below codes:

<p>wpv-archive-title: [wpv-archive-title]<br />
nex-org-cover-image:[types field='nex-org-cover-image' alt='%%ALT%%' title='%%TITLE%%' size='full' align='none'][/types]</p>

Please test again, check if is what you need.

More help:
https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/views-shortcodes/#wpv-archive-title
This shortcode displays the title of the WordPress archive page.

[janelY]

Thank you! This worked for the title. How do I show the corresponding Taxonomy Description and Image field (added field)?

What is inputted here: hidden link

Thank you so much!

[Luo Yang]

There isn't such a shortcode can output the taxonomy Description in the archive page, I suggest you create a taxonomy view to display what you want, for example:
1) Create a taxonomy view, query the terms of your custom taxonomy, filter with:
Taxonomy is set by the page where this View is inserted

2) In the section "Loop Output Editor", display these:
Taxonomy Description: [wpv-taxonomy-description]
https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/views-shortcodes/#wpv-taxonomy-description
My term image: [types termmeta='my-term-image' alt='%%ALT%%' title='%%TITLE%%' size='thumbnail' align='none' resize='proportional'][/types]
https://toolset.com/documentation/customizing-sites-using-php/functions/#image
Please replace "my-term-image" with your image slug

3) Then put above taxonomy view into the wordpress archive

[janelY]

Thank you for your reply.

This is what I have. The problem is, is the it's pulling in the incorrect image and description for some of them.

Here is a direct link to the view: hidden link

An example is this Increase Safety which is loading Building Communities description and image: hidden link

[Luo Yang]

Thanks for the details, I am checking it in your website, will feedback if there is anything found

[Luo Yang]

I need your permission to deactivate plugins and switch themes, please backup your website site first, thanks

[janelY]

Hi, you have permission.

[Luo Yang]

I have made below modifications in your website:
1) Add below codes into your theme/functions.php:

add_shortcode('archive-term-id', 'archive_term_id_func');
function archive_term_id_func($atts, $content){
	 $queried_object = get_queried_object();
	 $res = '';
	 if(isset($queried_object->term_id)){
		 $res = $queried_object->term_id;
	 }
	 return $res;
}

It will be able to output the term of ID of current taxonomy archive page

2) Modify the view "FA - Featured Image":
hidden link
Change the filter to:
Taxonomy term ID is set by the shortcode attribute "terms"

3) Modify the layout "Focus Area":
hidden link
replace the view cell with a visual editor cell, with below shortcode:
[wpv-view name="fa-featured-image" terms="[archive-term-id]"]

4) Dashboard-> Toolset-> Settings-> Front-end Content
in section "Third-party shortcode arguments", add the shortcode name "archive-term-id"

Please test again, check if it is fixed or not, thanks

[janelY]

Thank you!! That fixed it.
