The variable $book_term_id has not been set. You either need to pass it to your function or set it in your function. Pass it to your function: <?php dropdown($book_term_id); ?> Set it in your function: function dropdown(){ $book_term_id = 5; // if a global variable, you can just use: global $book_term_id; $dropdown = array( ‘child_of’ … Read more
If you want to apply this term filter to all queries on the site, then you’ll want to use the ‘parse_query’ action. This action will accept the WP_Query instance as a parameter, which will allow you to add a term filter based on the $_SESSION variable.

The basic concept here was to get ALL the posts tagged with the main person (in this case, Tom Cruise, you’ll have to setup that variable on your own.

How about something like if( in_array( $current_tax, get_user_meta( $user, ‘legal_taxonomies’, true ) ) ) You can get the current taxonomy information using get_term_by(). This operates on the assumption that you’re storing the available taxonomies as an array, but is easily changed for any storage method.
Try out this code and see if it works for you, I just cooked it up real quick and haven’t tested it, so it may be way off base, but the concept is there. $tax_args = array( ‘public’ => true ); $taxonomies = get_taxonomies( $tax_args, ‘names’, ‘or’ ); $term_args = array( ‘fields’ => ‘ids’ ); … Read more

You can create a taxonomy.php file and put your loop/query inside this file and as such anytime you are on a taxonomy page, no matter the term, be it cranes, bulldozers, etc the taxonomy.php will take over and handle the term in question (as shown in your URL). Taken from the WordPress Codex, this is … Read more
