How to extract url from get_the_term_list?

1 Views

How do you extract the url from : 

$url = get_the_term_list($post->ID, 'nom-origin')

I have tried many things but i just don’t get it. The only solution i got was this but i know it’s just too messy :

$url = get_the_term_list($post->ID, 'nom-origin');//,'<h3>Job Category:</h3> ', ', ', '' );
$url_tmp1 = explode("href="",$url);
$url_tmp2 = explode("" rel="tag">",$url_tmp1[1]);
$url_simple = $url_tmp2[0];

  1. get_term_link gives you the link of a particular taxonomy term.

    $terms = get_object_terms( $post->ID, 'nom-origin' );
$urls = array();
foreach( $terms as $term )
{
    $url[] = get_term_link( $term->slug, 'nom-origin' );
    //Or do whatever you want here with the url
}

  2. Never try to parse complete markup when you don’t have to. Follow the function calls.

    1. get_the_term_list uses get_the_terms
    2. get_the_terms returns an array of terms
    3. You can use that array plus get_term_link to get your URLs

    And the code for that is in the Codex. 

    $terms = get_terms('species');
echo '<ul>';
  foreach ($terms as $term) {
    echo '<li><a href="'.get_term_link($term->slug,species').'">'.$term->name.'</a></li>';
  }
echo '</ul>';

    You may want to build an array instead, but its the same idea:

    $terms = get_terms('species');
$turls = array();
foreach ($terms as $term) {
    $turl[] = get_term_link($term->slug,'species');
}
