Display WordPress custom taxonomy tags but not as links

  • I'm working on a WP theme and I've got a custom post type for videos, and then a custom taxonomy set up like tags to display the people in each video.

    The standard way of spitting out those custom taxonomy tags is to use this function, yes?

    <?php echo get_the_term_list($post->ID, 'people', 'People: ', ', ', ''); ?>


    But that makes each term a link, but I don't want a link, I just want plain text.

    I would appreciate any help or ideas on how to do this. Thanks!
  • Here you go:


    <?php $terms_as_text = get_the_term_list( $post->ID,'people', 'People: ', ', '); if (!empty($terms_as_text)) echo '<p>', strip_tags($terms_as_text) ,'</p>'; ?>
  • Works like a charm. This is just what I was looking for. Thanks a ton!
  • This is awesome. Thanks.
