This doesn’t work the way I need it, unfortunately.

I have some Issues where all of the Articles in it follow a theme so, when an Issue is displayed (using the standard template of the recommended Current Issue page), I’d like to show a short paragraph about that common theme after the Issue Title [issuem_issue_title] and before the Articles of that Issue [issuem_articles].

Each issue has a ‘Description’ box when you set it up (id=”description”) but, I can’t see how to get that description to display in the template.

I’m reliably informed it could be done with a PHP snippet that fetches and displays the description. A get_the_terms function (?), but I’ve been trying to learn how to do that and it’s way beyond me.

Can anybody help?

Something very similar to what you’ve outlined there, might just do it. I’ve got to keep the process as simple as possible because it won’t always be me uploading issues but you’ve, at the very least, triggered the beginnings of a different ‘Front page’-based plan. Thank you.
