Customising the Results Page – Portfolio Category names

Anonymous

#29815

Hello,

I purchased this plugin to search and filter some portfolio categories from the Portfolio of the Enfold theme.

I am trying to make some really basic changes to the results page. For example I would like to display all the categories that a single portfolio item belongs.

How do I get the category names and display them next to the portfolio item thumbnail ?

Thank you in advance for your help and support

Hey Alex

So to customise your results you need to figure out which display method you are using and follow the correct link on this page:

http://www.designsandcode.com/documentation/search-filter-pro/search-results/#Display_Results_Method

Then once you know how to make modification to your template file, to get the terms associated with the post you want to do something like:

https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_get_post_terms

Portofio categories are just Custom Taxonomies.

Thanks

Hi Alex

This is the link I just mentioned.

So inside your template file, next to the thumbnail, you must add the following code:

https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_get_post_terms

This will work for any Taxonomy (as mentioned above, portfolio categories are actually a Taxonomy).

So, you will need to find the internal taxonomy name of “Portfolio Categories” – this will probably be something like portfolio_categories

If this is the case, then you would probably need something like the following (adapted from teh link above):

//Do something if a specific array value exists within a post
$term_list = wp_get_post_terms(get_the_ID(), 'portfolio_categories', array("fields" => "all"));

foreach($term_list as $term_single) {
    echo $term_single->name; //do something here
}

This should give you a start 🙂

Thanks
