Hi,
I have been trying to follow the documentation:
```
$term_id = get_queried_object_id();
$value = rwmb_meta( $my_custom_field_id, ['object_type' => 'term'], $term_id );
```
to then query $value - so I can see if one term ID was selected on a post.

I also tried $was_interview = get_post_meta( $post->ID, 'summary-made', true );

But I cannot get it working!! Where am I going wrong? Is the term ID the slug of the taxonomy or the number? And do I need to add something else to get_queried_object_id() ?

Hello Yasmine,

Can you please let me know the full scenario in this case? If you use this code
```
$term_id = get_queried_object_id();
$value = rwmb_meta( $my_custom_field_id, ['object_type' => 'term'], $term_id );
```
It will work on the archive term page and get the term meta. But you also refer to this code

$was_interview = get_post_meta( $post->ID, 'summary-made', true );

which only works on the post page or in the WP Query loop.
