Maelezo
Please note this plugin requires at least PHP 7.1.
If you need to reorganize your tags and categories, this plugin will make it easier for you. It adds three new options to the Bulk Actions dropdown on term management pages:
- Merge – combine two or more terms into one
- Set Parent – set the parent for one or more terms (for hierarchical taxonomies)
- Change Taxonomy – convert terms from one taxonomy to another
It works with tags, categories and custom taxonomies.
Usage
- Go to the taxonomy page containing terms you want to modify. For example, for categories go to
WP-Admin
. Posts Categories - Select the terms you want to reorganize
- Find the Bulk Actions dropdown, and select the task you’d like done.
- Disco.
WPML
WPML-translated terms are partially supported. Currently only the “Change Taxonomy” task is WPML-aware. If a term with translations is moved to a new taxonomy, its translations are moved as well, and the translation relationships are preserved.
Currently only the “Change Taxonomy” task is WPML-aware
Work on the WPML component was sponsored by the Rainforest Alliance.
