Getting custom taxonomy tags based on get_the_ID() (Outside for loop)

Question

I have a custom taxonomy called type . Type has the following options:

• Blog
• News
• Training

I've created a draggable element (in Visual Composer) which will show these tags. Because of this, the draggable element is not part of archive-resources.php , so I can't run it through a loop.

What I'm trying to do is:

• Get blog post ID (which I've done via get_the_ID() .
• Display type that is assigned that blog post.

However, currently, all three type tags are displaying. Where am I going wrong?

$blogpostID = get_the_ID();
$termType = get_terms('type');
$output = '';

foreach ( $termType as $termT ) {
    echo $output . '<a href="'.get_term_link($termT).'">'.$termT->name.'</a>';
}

Answer 1

Ok, Do it this way:

<?php  
$terms = get_the_terms( $post->ID , 'type' );
$output = '';
if ( $terms != null ){
    foreach ( $terms as $term ) {
        echo $output . '<a href="'.get_term_link($term).'">'.$term->name.'</a>';
    }
}
