You can use get_terms to get the list of all terms associated with a taxonomy. Once you have all the separate terms, you can use $term->name to display the name of the term and $term->count to retrieve the amount of posts inside that specific term. Here is a slightly modified version of the code found … Read more
You would use the save_post hook, in your hooked function use wp_insert_term as described here: http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_insert_term Then use wp_set_object_terms on the post to assignt he taxonomy term you just created as follows: http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_set_object_terms for example: function my_save($post_id) { wp_insert_term( ‘bannanapost’, ‘fruit’); wp_set_object_terms( $post_id, ‘bannanapost’, ‘fruit’, true ) } add_action(‘save_post’,’my_save’); The above code, placed in functions.php … Read more
There is unfortunately no way that you are going to do this in one or two queries. It seems that there are a misunderstanding or misconception about database queries. The most important aspect to keep in mind when you are running database queries is the amount of database queries vs. the time these queries will … Read more
The original question uses get_tax_meta() which does not exist in WordPress core but may be a custom function created by the asker. In this case we could switch it out just as well with get_term_meta(). You could try this: class List_Category_Images extends Walker_Category { function start_el( &$output, $category, $depth = 0, $args = array(), $id … Read more
There does not appear to be any way to hook into that from inside PHP http://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/3.3.1/wp-admin/includes/meta-boxes.php#L300 So JavaScript will probably best suit as a quick and easy solution. add_action( ‘admin_footer-post-new.php’, ‘wpse_45149_inject_script’ ); function wpse_45149_inject_script() { $expand_for = array( ‘post_tag’ ); // add taxonomy names here // build a nice jQuery query foreach ( $expand_for as … Read more
You can use the created_term or the created_{taxonomy} hooks which are fired just after a taxonomy term is created (the second only if it matches the taxonomy). The following will only alter terms in the taxonomy ‘my-taxonomy’. (I believe for the default tags, taxonomy should be ‘post_tag’). add_action(‘created_term’, ‘my_add_prefix_to_term’, 10, 3); function my_add_prefix_to_term( $term_id,$tt_id,$taxonomy ) … 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
Use the deepest term only. If you want to rearrange the term relations later you don’t have to go through all posts to fix the post-term relations. Plus, you are more flexible when you want to separate the posts with child terms from post associated with the current term only.
Was having the same problem on a couple of sites myself, but this thread not only gave me the answer, but hinted at why it had been happening 🙂 I create a new user for each database, with only permissions to that database, however even within that (given I don’t do it often) I guess … Read more
Try hooking into the save_post action to check the custom terms when a post gets saved: add_action( ‘save_post’, ‘set_default_category’ ); function set_default_category( $post_id ) { // Get the terms $terms = wp_get_post_terms( $post_id, ‘your_custom_taxonomy’); // Only set default if no terms are set yet if (!$terms) { // Assign the default category $default_term = get_term_by(‘slug’, … Read more
