Show Category in Wordpress Portfolium Theme

Question

I'm using the portfolium-theme for Wordpress and I need your help.

I would like to show the portfolio category under the title on the frontpage (loop-portfolio). The Categories are with taxonomy but I can't figure it out.

my side

the loop-portfolio.php

 <?php if ( have_posts() ) : ?>
    <?php $i = 0; ?>
    <?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); $i++; ?>
    <div class="post_home">
<div class="post_home2"></div>
        <a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" class="thumb" title="<?php the_title(); ?>">

            <?php if (has_post_thumbnail()) : ?>
                <?php the_post_thumbnail(array(305,145)); ?>
            <?php else : ?>
                <img src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/i/noimage.jpg" width="305" height="145" alt=""/>
            <?php endif; ?>
        </a>    
        <h2><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2> 




    </div>

    <?php if ($i % 6 == 0) echo '<div style="clear: both;"></div>'?>
    <?php endwhile; ?>
<?php endif; ?>

and the taxonomy.php

    <?php get_header(); ?>

<?php
    $term = get_term_by('slug', get_query_var('term'), get_query_var('taxonomy'));
    query_posts(array('post_type' => 'portfolio', 'works' => $term->slug, 'posts_per_page' => -1));
?>

<?php get_template_part('loop-portfolio');  // Loop template for portfolio (loop-portfolio.php) ?>

<?php get_footer(); ?>

the functions.php

    <?php

Answer 1

Not sure if i understood what you want, but if you want a drop down menu for portfolio with all the taxonomies justuse the example in the WP codex for get term link Replace 'species' with your taxonomy (hope this is what you need, if not i'll try to help out) and thats about all you need to do

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

PS: if you're not sure what your terms bring back just use print_r($var_name); helps out a lot :)
