How to use a Term Meta Field as a link

I created a taxonomy called animal and a term meta field called horse.

I created a function in my functios.php file to make it easier to display the data.

Here is my code:

function regular_info_page() {
                $terms = get_the_terms($post->ID, 'animal');
                $result = "";
                if (is_array($terms) || is_object($terms)){
                foreach ($terms as $term) {
                    $term_id = $term->term_id;
                    $result .= get_term_meta( $term_id, 
'horse', true );
                }
            }
                return $result;
            }

The meta field horse holds a link, and I would like to display the link on my page, but instead of it opening the link, it just reloads the current page.

Here is the code I placed on the page:

<p><a href="https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/312845/<?php regular_info_page(); ?>">For more info on this Bracha, click here.</a></p>

Any ideas?

You’re not echoing the result, it’s just returning which isn’t output to the page. You should be able to change return $result; into echo $result; and have it display.

Just be aware that as you have your code now, it’s not going to return or echo a proper link.

My guess is you could use something like is found at the link below to do what you need.
