Function Name: wp_get_post_terms
Are you looking for a way to retrieve the terms associated with a particular post in WordPress? Look no further than the wp_get_post_terms function.
This function retrieves the terms associated with a specific post, using the post ID as its parameter. It’s commonly used in WordPress when you need to display the terms that are assigned to a post, such as categories or tags.
Here’s an example of how to use wp_get_post_terms to retrieve the categories assigned to a post:
$terms = wp_get_post_terms( $post_id, 'category' );
if ( !empty( $terms ) && !is_wp_error( $terms ) ) {
foreach ( $terms as $term ) {
echo '<a href="' . get_term_link( $term ) . '">' . $term->name . '</a>';
}
}In this code snippet, we first use wp_get_post_terms to retrieve an array of terms assigned to the post with the ID $post_id, where "category" is passed as the taxonomy parameter. We then loop through the array of terms, and for each term, we use get_term_link to display a hyperlink to the category archive page, along with the term name.
That’s all there is to using wp_get_post_terms in WordPress! With this function, you can easily retrieve and display the terms associated with any post on your WordPress site.
