I_Know_Godsince i know you guys are all experts and all heres what i got.
i have a custom taxonomy inside a custom post type
there is a page that loops through and calls all the custom post types, and displays them
then at the top there is a dropdown that needs to list all the taxonomies for those custom post types
i have the page correctly displaying them, but the problem is the dropdown displays duplicated items. code below, the first is the code displaying now. the second is what i suggest but isn't working
