I agree with you, it’s somewhat an unexpected user experience, when you’re redirected after updating a term. Additionally there seems to be no error handling on the form itself, if you try to make some errors, like deleting the term name and slug, it will not show any errors, just ignore your changes and redirect. … Read more

For what I can understand you already have the table in your database. I don’t know how you have named it, but a best practise (for me a must-do practise) is to name it with the same table prefix of wordpress, that’s the one setted in wp-config.php. You also don’t say how this table is … Read more

Then you can trigger your form function when the form … Read more
You can easily connect to another DB using the wpdb class: $external_users_db = new wpdb(DB_USER, DB_PASSWORD, DB_NAME, DB_HOST); (substituting in your applicable values, of course). From there you can use the get_results, insert, update, and query methods (among others) to do what you need to do, e.g. $external_users_db->get_results( “SELECT ID, username FROM users” );.

Your attempt to send your AJAX requests to wp-admin/admin-ajax.php is correct but it will be better to create a javascript global variable using wp_localize_script() to make any data available to your script in functions.php that you can normally only get from the server side of WordPress. For example, your javascript code can be in the … Read more
