A modified version of WP’s get_term(): function &get_term_by_id_only($term, $output = OBJECT, $filter=”raw”) { global $wpdb; $null = null; if ( empty($term) ) { $error = new WP_Error(‘invalid_term’, __(‘Empty Term’)); return $error; } if ( is_object($term) && empty($term->filter) ) { wp_cache_add($term->term_id, $term, ‘my_custom_queries’); $_term = $term; … Read more
