I've read all the posts about displaying terms of a custom taxonomy and it's still not working. Ok, so here's the code:

 

    <?php
    //creating a custom taxonomy called 'brand'
    add_action( 'init', 'create_custom_taxonomies', 0 );
    function create_custom_taxonomies() {
    	$labels = array(
    		'name'              => _x( 'Brands', 'taxonomy general name' ),
    		'singular_name'     => _x( 'Brand', 'taxonomy singular name' ),
    		'search_items'      => __( 'Search Brands' ),
    		'all_items'         => __( 'All Brands' ),
    		'parent_item'       => __( 'Parent Brand' ),
    		'parent_item_colon' => __( 'Parent Brand:' ),
    		'edit_item'         => __( 'Edit Brand' ),
    		'update_item'       => __( 'Update Brand' ),
    		'add_new_item'      => __( 'Add New Brand' ),
    		'new_item_name'     => __( 'New Brand Name' ),
    		'menu_name'         => __( 'Brand' ),
    	);
    	$args = array(
    		'hierarchical'      => true,
    		'labels'            => $labels,
    		'show_ui'           => true,
    		'show_admin_column' => true,
    		'query_var'         => true,
    		'rewrite'           => array( 'slug' => 'brand' ),
    	);
    	register_taxonomy( 'brand', null , $args );
    }
    
        
    //creating a custom post type that is using 'brand' taxonomy
    function create_post_type() {
        register_post_type( 'products',
    		array(
    		'labels' => array(
    			'name' => __( 'Products' ),
    			'singular_name' => __( 'Product' ),
                'add_new' => _x('Add New', 'products'),
                'add_new_item' => __('Add New Product'),
                'edit_item' => __('Edyt Product'),
                'new_item' => __('New Product'),
                'view_item' => __('View Product'),
                'search_items' => __('Search Product'),
                'not_found' =>  __('Nothing found'),
    		),
            'taxonomies' => array('brand'),
    		'supports' => array('title', 'editor', 'thumbnail'),
    		'public' => true,
    		'has_archive' => true,
    		'show_ui' => true,
    		)
    	);
    	
    }
    add_action( 'init', 'create_post_type' );
    ?>

So till now everything works perfectly - I have both my custom post and taxonomy, created some posts and terms. But now I want to display terms and nothing happens.

    <?php
    //part of template-offer.php
    $taxonomy = 'brand';
    $term_args=array(
      'hide_empty' => false,
      'orderby' => 'name',
      'order' => 'ASC'
    );
    $tax_terms = get_terms($taxonomy,$term_args);
    echo $tax_terms;
    ?>
And on the output I'm only getting an empty array. I'm staring at the code and can't find out why. Would you help me?
