With this tutorial, we’re going to show you how to display randomly display taxonomies. For example, we’ll create a Post Type called Event whose taxonomy will be Event Type. We consult an Event page and under its results, we want to randomly display additional taxonomy except for the one we’re currently viewing.<\/p>\n

They are like similar terms, but random.<\/p>\n

For our example:
\nPost Type: Events<\/strong>
\nTaxonomy: Event type (must be the same as the category name)<\/strong>
\nTemplate used: taxonomy-type-evenements.php<\/strong><\/p>\n

Thus we will create a query that will allow us to do so. We will use the get_terms<\/strong><\/a> function and add our args. Afterwards, we will get a random result and we will indicate how many results to return. To display the results, we close the loop with a foreach<\/strong> for every term.<\/p>\n

We also must not forget to exclude the term we are currently consulting with the get_queried_object_id();<\/strong> that we use with our variable before the get_terms.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n

Randomly Display Taxonomy Terms<\/h2>
<?php \n    \/\/Get all terms \n\t$currentid = get_queried_object_id(); \n\t$terms = get_terms( array( \n\t'taxonomy'      => 'type-evenements',\n\t'hide_empty'    => false,\n\t'exclude'       => array($currentid)\n\t) );\n\t\/\/ Randomize Term Array\n\tshuffle( $terms );\n\t\/\/ Grab Indices 0 - 5, 6 in total\n\t$randterms = array_slice( $terms, 0, 2 );\n?>\n<?php foreach ($randterms as $term) { ?>\n<?php \/\/\/ Votre div dynamique désirée ?>\n<?php endforeach; wp_reset_postdata(); ?><\/pre><\/div>\n\t
\n\t\t
\n\t\t\t
So by using get_terms, make sure to change the args for yours without adding any new ones.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"With this tutorial, we're going to show you how to display randomly display taxonomies.
