Current post term links controls in Elementor

03 / Website use cases

Where to use current post term links

Readers who enjoy a post want more on the same topic, and the post's categories and tags are the way there, but templates often show them as an unlabelled list or leave them out. Current post term links shows them inline, as chips or as a list, with a prefix that follows the count, leaves out “Uncategorized”, and links each term to its archive.

Troubleshoot current post term links

Check these settings if the published page behaves differently from the editor.

Why is Uncategorized missing?

The default category is left out by default. Turn off Leave out the default category to show it.

Why does nothing show?

The post has no terms in the chosen taxonomy, or its post type does not use it. The editor says which.

How do I remove the prefix?

Turn off Show a prefix.

Why are the terms in a different order from the editor?

They are listed alphabetically.
