php - Wordpress Get the CURRENT Category from Single Post, Multiple Categories

Solution:

No such thing as current taxonomy, when you on single page. You can only check from which taxonomy user go to this page. You can do this by checking $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'].

Solution:

Assuming your url are as simple as what you've provided, this will probably do,

// Get the Current  URL path
$url =  "{$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']}";

// Convert URL path string to array
$e = explode('/', $url ); // You can dump this to verify which is the taxonomy slug

// Get all taxonomy slug assigned on this post
$taxonomy = wp_get_post_terms( get_the_ID(), 'your_taxonomy');
$tax_names = '';
foreach( $taxonomy as $tax ) {
    $tax_names .= ' '. $tax->slug;
}
// check if 2nd array which is the current taxonomy exist on list of taxonomy assigned to post
if( isset( $e[1] ) && strpos($tax_names, $e[1]) !== false ) {
    // Get Term Name by slug
    $term = get_term_by('slug', $e[1], 'your_taxonomy');
    _e( $term->name);
} else {
    _e($e[1]. ' is not a valid taxonomy for this post');
}
Copy code

Solution:

Ifquery_var is set totrue in the taxonomy, you can detect which category is currently being viewed by using$wp_query (global),

$wp_query->query_vars['the_taxonomy_name'];

Runvar_dump($wp_query->query_vars); to view the full array of all query information.

<?php global $wp_query;
$home_plan_community = $wp_query->query_vars['community'];
echo $home_plan_community; ?>
