I would like to dynamically import different template parts (hardcoded sidebars or navigations) into my layout based on a taxonomy assigned to the post. For instance, this "standard" code works as intended:

<?php get_template_part( 'nav', 'term' ); ?>

and is outputting the (previously hardcoded) file "nav-term.php" where I want it to be. My question: How can I dynamically pick the term of that custom taxonomy assigned to my post and output it as a value of my function? Something like so: "( 'nav', 'dynamically_picked_term' )".

N.b. I'm selecting taxonomy terms by ACF plugin. Also the ACF API could be used.

Thank you in advance for any advice!

  • Hello @kaiser. The question was about how to combine 2 wp core functions, custom fields & get_template_part. The use of ACF was an additional info. Edited question to make it better wp related. Thank you.

You should be able to get at the terms in your custom taxonomy using this function: http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_get_post_terms

  • Thank you @Dan. I tried that one but I couldn't figure out how to use the function. How would you implement it?

  • You'd need to pass your post id and your custom taxonomy. print_r() the results and see what you get.
