is_tax() with term parameter returns true for any taxonomy with that term

[petercarlill]

I have two custom taxonomies, 'body' and 'operations', assigned to different custom post types.

Both taxonomies contain the term 'shoulder'

is_tax('operations','shoulder') returns true both when viewing the 'shoulder' archive for the taxonomy 'operations' and when viewing the archive page for the term 'shoulder' in the taxonomy 'Body-Parts'

Therefore, is_tax() is returning true for the term, and ignoring which taxonomy it is in.

The only way I can get it to return true only when viewing the 'shoulder' archive for 'operations' is by is_tax( 'operations', 'shoulder') && is_tax('operations')

Version is 3.3.2

Yep - WP_Query::is_tax() only does the tax check if you didn't pass a term - I have a fix - patch attached

In [21836]:

Check that the taxonomy matches when calling is_tax() with only a taxonomy argument. props wonderboymusic, see #20590.

Some quick unit tests for this would be awesome.

Unit tests for this are a pain.
