Function Reference/get objects in term

Description

Retrieve object_ids of valid taxonomy and term.

The strings of $taxonomies must exist before this function will continue. On failure of finding a valid taxonomy, it will return an WP_Error class, kind of like Exceptions in PHP 5, except you can't catch them. Even so, you can still test for the WP_Error class and get the error message.

The $terms aren't checked the same as $taxonomies, but still need to exist for $object_ids to be returned.

It is possible to change the order that object_ids is returned by either using PHP sort family functions or using the database by using $args with either ASC or DESC array. The value should be in the key named 'order'.

Usage

<?php get_objects_in_term( $term_ids, $taxonomies, $args ) ?>

Parameters

$term_ids

(integer|array) (required) Term id or array of term ids of terms that will be used

Default: None

$taxonomies

(string|array) (required) String of taxonomy name or Array of string values of taxonomy names

Default: None

$args

(array|string) (optional) Change the order of the object_ids, either ASC or DESC

Default: array()

Return Values

(WP_Error|array): If the taxonomy does not exist, then WP_Error will be returned. On success the array can be empty meaning that there are no $object_ids found or it will return the $object_ids found.
