   Hello, I'm working on a portfolio site.

   Created custom post type called "portfolio", and using a taxonomy called "disciplina" with some values... design, web, photography, etc.

   I'm using Thematic framework and WP menu.

   I have added some menu items for listing projects by taxonomy. With instructions posted here:

   http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/3014/highlighting-wp-nav-menu-ancestor-class-w-o-children-in-nav-structure

   and here:

   http://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-post-type-parent

   I'm trying to make different, with a class, the current menu item of the taxonomy of the portfolio item, with this code:

   function current_type_nav_class($classes, $item) {
   
       # get Query Vars
       $post_type = get_query_var('post_type');
       $taxonomy = get_query_var( 'disciplina' ) ;
       //$taxonomy = get_the_term_list( $post->ID, 'disciplina', '', ', ', '' );
       //$taxonomy = get_term_by( 'slug', '', get_query_var( 'disciplina' ) ); //echo $term->name;
       echo $taxonomy;
   
       # get and parse Title attribute of Menu item
       $title = $item->attr_title; // menu item Title attribute, as post_type;taxonomy
       $title_array = explode(";", $title);
       $title_posttype = $title_array[0];
       $title_taxonomy = $title_array[1];
       //echo $title_taxonomy;
   
       # add class if needed
   	if ($post_type == 'portfolio') {
   		if ($title != '' && ($title_posttype == $post_type || $title_taxonomy == $taxonomy)) {
   			echo 'ENTER!';
   			array_push($classes, 'current-menu-item');
   		};
   	}
   	return $classes;
   }
   add_filter('nav_menu_css_class', 'current_type_nav_class', 10, 2 );

   I am not able to recover current taxonomy in the custom post type page. $taxonomy doesn't have a value.

   I know once the code recovers the current taxonomy, it will work. Notice that I have also tested other solutions, none of them are returning anything.

   Hope somebody can guide me. Thank you!

   Solved using:

   $taxonomy = strip_tags( get_the_term_list($post->ID, 'disciplina') );

   and in conditional:

   if ($title != '' && ($title_posttype == $post_type && $title_taxonomy == $taxonomy)) {

   Thank you!

   In template write:

   echo $wp_query->tax_query->queries[0]['taxonomy']
   to display current taxonomy

   echo $wp_query->queried_object->name
   to display current term of current taxonomy
