hy, i need to add the value of my taxonomy in the search page.
i see it in the url, like “?_sft=…” but i wonder which code i should add on my search template in order to view the taxonomy value together with the search results.

can you help me please?

this is my results page (search template):
http://tinyurl.com/kmqfp4a

as you can see i need to complete the field “Giorno:…” (under the main title) with my taxonomy value.

thank you…

Ah you want to display the taxonomy name in the current page?

Then you need to use some code like this in your template:

function get_taxonomy_values($taxonomy_key)
{
	global $wp_query;
	
	if(isset($wp_query->query[$taxonomy_key]))
	{
		if (strpos(esc_attr($wp_query->query[$taxonomy_key]),',') !== false)
		{
			$ochar = ",";
			$taxterms = explode($ochar, esc_attr(($wp_query->query[$taxonomy_key])));
			
			return implode(" or ", $taxterms);
		}
		else
		{
			$ochar = "+";
			$taxterms = explode($ochar, esc_attr(urlencode($wp_query->query[$taxonomy_key])));
			
			return implode(" and ", $taxterms);
		}
	}
	
	
}

echo get_taxonomy_values("_sft_giorni");

Hope that helps!

thank you. it works. but how can i view the name of the taxonomy, instead of the slug?

and one more question:

can you please tell me the code in order to view the category name (for a category search template)? i tried by replacing the last string:

get_taxonomy_values(“_sft_giorni”)
IN
get_taxonomy_values(“_sft_portfolio-category”)

but it doesn’t work properly.

thank you very much for your help

Here is the updated code 🙂

function get_taxonomy_values($taxonomy_key)
{
	global $wp_query;
	global $wpdb;
	
	if(isset($wp_query->query[$taxonomy_key]))
	{
		if (strpos(esc_attr($wp_query->query[$taxonomy_key]),',') !== false)
		{
			$ochar = ",";
			$taxterms = explode($ochar, esc_attr(($wp_query->query[$taxonomy_key])));
			
			$taxlabels = array();
			foreach ($taxterms as $taxterm)
			{
				$taxlabel = $wpdb->get_var("SELECT name FROM $wpdb->terms WHERE slug='".$taxterm."'");
				array_push($taxlabels, $taxlabel);
			}
			
			return implode(" or ", $taxlabels);
		}
		else
		{
			$ochar = "+";
			$taxterms = explode($ochar, esc_attr(urlencode($wp_query->query[$taxonomy_key])));
			
			$taxlabels = array();
			foreach ($taxterms as $taxterm)
			{
				$taxlabel = $wpdb->get_var("SELECT name FROM $wpdb->terms WHERE slug='".$taxterm."'");
				array_push($taxlabels, $taxlabel);
			}
			
			return implode(" or ", $taxlabels);
		}
	}
}

echo get_taxonomy_values("_sft_giorni");
