get_terms() – Function | Developer.WordPress.org

Retrieves the terms in a given taxonomy or list of taxonomies.

Description

You can fully inject any customizations to the query before it is sent, as well as control the output with a filter.

The return type varies depending on the value passed to $args['fields']. See WP_Term_Query::get_terms() for details. In all cases, a WP_Error object will be returned if an invalid taxonomy is requested.

The ‘get_terms’ filter will be called when the cache has the term and will pass the found term along with the array of $taxonomies and array of $args.
This filter is also called before the array of terms is passed and will pass the array of terms, along with the $taxonomies and $args.

The ‘list_terms_exclusions’ filter passes the compiled exclusions along with the $args.

The ‘get_terms_orderby’ filter passes the ORDER BY clause for the query along with the $args array.

Taxonomy or an array of taxonomies should be passed via the ‘taxonomy’ argument in the $args array:

$terms = get_terms( array(
    'taxonomy'   => 'post_tag',
    'hide_empty' => false,
) );

Prior to 4.5.0, taxonomy was passed as the first parameter of get_terms().

Parameters

$argsarray|stringoptional: Array or string of arguments. See WP_Term_Query::__construct() for information on accepted arguments.
Default:array()
$deprecatedarray|stringoptional: Argument array, when using the legacy function parameter format.
If present, this parameter will be interpreted as $args, and the first function parameter will be parsed as a taxonomy or array of taxonomies.

Default:''

Return

WP_Term[]|int[]|string[]|string|WP_Error Array of terms, a count thereof as a numeric string, or WP_Error if any of the taxonomies do not exist.
See the function description for more information.

Get categories and subcategories by custom taxonomies:

$taxonomies = get_terms( array(
	'taxonomy' => 'taxonomy_name',
	'hide_empty' => false
) );

if ( !empty($taxonomies) ) :
	$output = '<select>';

		if( $category->parent == 0 ) {
			$output.= '<optgroup label="'. esc_attr( $category->name ) .'">';

Get all post categories ordered by count.

String syntax:

$categories = get_terms( 'category', 'orderby=count&hide_empty=0' );

Array syntax:

$categories = get_terms( 'category', array(
	'orderby'    => 'count',
	'hide_empty' => 0,
) );

Get all the links categories:

$my_links_categories = get_terms( 'link_category', 'orderby=count&hide_empty=0' );

List all the terms in a custom taxonomy, without a link:

$terms = get_terms( 'my_taxonomy' );
if ( ! empty( $terms ) && ! is_wp_error( $terms ) ){
	echo '<ul>';
	foreach ( $terms as $term ) {
		echo '<li>' . $term->name . '</li>';
	}
	echo '</ul>';
}

List all the terms, with link to term archive, separated by an interpunct (·):

$args = array( 'hide_empty=0' );

$terms = get_terms( 'my_term', $args );
if ( ! empty( $terms ) && ! is_wp_error( $terms ) ) {
	$count = count( $terms );
	$i = 0;
	$term_list = '<p class="my_term-archive">';
	foreach ( $terms as $term ) {
		$i++;
		$term_list .= '<a href="' . esc_url( get_term_link( $term ) ) . '" alt="' . esc_attr( sprintf( __( 'View all post filed under %s', 'my_localization_domain' ), $term->name ) ) . '">' . $term->name . '</a>';
		if ( $count != $i ) {
			$term_list .= ' &middot; ';
		}
		else {
			$term_list .= '</p>';
		}
	}
	echo $term_list;
}

Working with Advanced Custom Fields (field type: Taxonomy, output: Object) for filtering taxonomies.

Case: Create a filter with main categories defined by ACF field, and all another should belongs to *others*.

Solution:

// Define Featured Category IDs first
$featured_category_ids = array();
// It must be output WP_Object
$featured_categories = get_field('main_category_filters');

// Creating loop to insert IDs to array.
foreach( $featured_categories as $cat ) {
	$featured_category_ids[] = $cat-&gt;term_id;
}

// Now, if Featured Categories are match, add their IDs via 'exclude'
if( $featured_categories ) {
	$args = array(
		'taxonomy' =&gt; 'event_cat',
		'parent' =&gt; 0,
		'exclude' =&gt; $featured_category_ids
	);
} else {
    // If no featured, just display all terms
	$args = array(
		'taxonomy' =&gt; 'event_cat',
		'parent' =&gt; 0
	);
}

// Starting query terms now
$other_categories = get_terms($args);

If `get_terms` doesnt works for some odd reason with custom taxonomy not showing registered, try using `WP_Term_Query`:

$term_query = new WP_Term_Query( array( 
    'taxonomy' => 'regions', // <-- Custom Taxonomy name..
    'orderby'                => 'name',
    'order'                  => 'ASC',
    'child_of'               => 0,
    'parent'                 => 0,
    'fields'                 => 'all',
    'hide_empty'             => false,
) );

// Show Array info
echo '<pre>';
print_r( $term_query->terms );
echo '</pre>';


//Render html
if ( ! empty( $term_query->terms ) ) {
    foreach ( $term_query->terms as $term ) {
        echo wp_kses_post( $term->name ) . ", ";
        echo esc_html( $term->term_id ) . ", ";
        echo esc_html( $term->slug ) . ", ";
        echo "<br>";
    }
} else {
    echo 'No term found.';
}

if ( !empty($taxonomies) ) :
    foreach( $taxonomies as $category ) {

            //remove uncategorized from loop
            if( $category->slug == 'uncategorized' ){
                continue;

            //Parent category information

If you want to `get_terms() ` by `post_type`, here’s a way to do it:

// First, get the post IDs
$my_ids = get_posts(
    array(
        'post_type' => 'my_post_type',
        'posts_per_page' => -1,
        'fields' => 'ids',
    )
);

// Then pass the the array of IDs to get_terms()
$terms = get_terms(
    array(
        'taxonomy' => 'my_taxonomy',
        'object_ids' => $my_ids,
        'hide_empty' => true,
    )
);

If you have a term assigned to something else than a post, here is a warning:
'hide_empty' is default true so it only shows terms assigned to posts. So if you get an empty Array returned be aware that terms (e.g. categories) assigned to attachments for example are not shown by default unless you use 'hide_empty' => false:
```
$wpdocs_categories = get_terms( array(
	'taxonomy' => 'category',
	'hide_empty' => false,
	'name__like' => 'foo'
) );
```

Be very careful as the code below:
```
$terms = get_terms( array(
    'taxonomy' => 'class_languages',
    'hide_empty' => false,
 ) );
```
can return valid terms, but can also return a WP_Error if, for example, the taxonomy is invalid…

Therefore this check alone isn’t enough to save you from bugs in your code:
```
   
if ( ! empty( $terms ) ) {
    // whatever code
}
```
Instead, better to use the one below:
```
if ( ! empty( $terms ) && ! is_wp_error( $terms ) ) {
    // whatever code
}
```

Categories and Tags are the two pre-defined Taxonomies. The Taxonomy Name, when included as an element ‘taxonomy’ of the array specified as the first parameter $args, has a value of ‘category’ for Categories and ‘post_tag’ for Tags.
'taxonomy' => 'category' 'taxonomy' => 'post_tag'

As per https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/41813 if you use this to in combination with a custom taxonomy which is used for media/attachments. You may find that all works well except the count of the terms when using get_terms ( which returns nothing ).

To fix this you may need to use this call in register_taxonomy
'update_count_callback' => '_update_generic_term_count',

Loop through taxonomy and list all subcategories.

    $taxonomy = 'my_taxonomy';

    function listTaxonomies($taxonomy,$term_id = '0') {
        $output = '';

        $args = array(
            'taxonomy' => $taxonomy,
            'parent' => $term_id
        );
        $categories = get_terms($args);

        if($categories) {
			$output.= '<div style="padding-left:2em;">';
            foreach( $categories as $category ) {
                $output.= esc_attr( $category->name ) . ' (' . $category->slug . ')<br>';
                $output.= listTaxonomies($taxonomy,$category->term_id);
            }
			$output.= '</div>';
        }
        return $output;
    }

    listTaxonomies($taxonomy);
