You have to check the existing terms first with wp_get_object_terms() and if the term you need is missing, add it with wp_set_object_terms(). It is faster to update the terms just once than to do this for every term. The following example is running on save_post. I put everything into a class (and into a plugin) … Read more

You could simply use the “pods”-plugin (for WordPress) from Matt Gibs and Scott Kingsley Clark. It’s exactly what you searching for. Take a look at the doku and look specificaly at “pick columns”. Aside from that it has a nice and ajax driven interface and builds it’s database tables next to wordpress and doesn’t make … Read more
Well the only way i can think of is to create an two dimentions array of the results you want to output, and the number of matching tags. so for example: $results = array(); $searched_tags = $_post[‘my_tax’]; $searched_tags = explode(“+”, $searched_tags); while (have_posts()){ $the_post(); $result[‘r’] = ‘<div class=”post”> <div class=”title”><h2><a href=”‘.get_permalink($post->ID).'” title=”‘.get_the_title($post->ID).'”>’.get_the_title($post->ID).'</a></h2></div> <div class=”excerpt”>’.get_the_excerpt().'</div> </div>’; … Read more
