Get only the first term by taxonomy

Question

Maybe it's a stupid question but I can't find the answer.

I have a custom taxonomy (directores) and each director is a term. Some times a film has more than one director. I need to print only the first director no all directors from one film.

Thanks!!!

Answer 1

how about use get_the_terms() function?

please try this code

$directores = get_the_terms( $post->ID, 'directores' ); 
$director = $directores[0];

// print object from first director
print_r($director);

// or get the director name
echo $director->name;

Answer 2

Finally I read the Wordpress doc Reference/get terms

$args = array('number' => '1',);
$terms = get_terms('director', $args );
foreach( $terms as $term ){
  echo  $term->name ;
}

Answer 3

use this code for access first texonomy from custom post type in wordpress

how about use get_the_terms() function?

please try this code

$works = get_the_terms( $post->ID, 'work' ); $director = $works[0];

// print object from first director print_r($director);

// or get the director name echo $director->name;
