Import hundreds of terms in seconds, export any taxonomy with a single click, build custom taxonomies without writing a line of code, and manage your entire user base — all from a clean, modern admin interface. Whether you are migrating a site, seeding a staging environment, bulk-editing taxonomy terms, or onboarding users, this plugin removes the manual work entirely. Works with every taxonomy WordPress supports: built-in categories and tags, WooCommerce product categories, and any custom taxonomy registered by a theme or plugin. #### 🗂️ Feature 1 — CSV Export Export any registered taxonomy to a structured CSV file in one click. **What it does:** Select a taxonomy from the dropdown, optionally preview the full term list in a table, then download the CSV. The exported file includes every term’s name, slug, description, and parent slug so the data is ready to import into any other WordPress site. **Use cases:** * Back up all taxonomy terms before a major site update * Migrate categories or tags from a staging site to production * Hand off a taxonomy list to a content team for bulk editing in Excel or Google Sheets * Archive taxonomy data as part of a site documentation process **Exported columns:** `name`, `slug`, `description`, `parent_slug` #### 🔍 Feature 2 — Export Preview See exactly what will be exported before the file downloads. **What it does:** Click **Preview** to load a live table of all terms for the selected taxonomy — name, slug, description, and parent slug — directly on the page. No download needed to verify the data. **Use cases:** * Confirm the correct taxonomy is selected before downloading * Spot missing descriptions or broken parent relationships before handing off data* Show a client or team member what data exists without needing to open a spreadsheet #### 📥 Feature 3 — CSV Import Bulk-import taxonomy terms from any CSV file with automatic hierarchy resolution. **What it does:** Upload a CSV file with a `name` column (plus optional `slug`,` description`, and `parent_slug`). The importer processes every row, creates the term, links it to its parent by slug, and shows a per-term results table — created, updated, skipped, or failed — when complete. **Use cases:** * Populate a brand-new site with hundreds of categories from a spreadsheet* Migrate taxonomy terms from another CMS or platform exported as CSV * Re-import an edited export file after a content team has updated descriptions in Excel * Seed a development or staging environment to match the production taxonomy structure * Sync taxonomy terms across multiple WordPress installations **Supported CSV columns:** `name` (required), `slug`, `description`, `parent_slug` #### 🏷️ Feature 4 — Register Custom Taxonomy Create and persist custom taxonomies from the WordPress admin — zero code required. **What it does:** Fill in a label, singular label, slug, and optional description. Choose the taxonomy type — **Tags** (non-hierarchical, like post tags) or **Categories**( hierarchical, like post categories). Select the post types to attach it to. Click Register. The taxonomy is saved to the database and re-registered automatically on every page load. **Use cases:** * Build a «Genres» taxonomy for a movie review site without editing` functions.php` * Add a «Topics» taxonomy to a knowledge base that attaches to both posts and pages * Let a non-developer client set up their own taxonomy structure during onboarding * Quickly prototype a custom post type taxonomy during theme development* Replace hardcoded taxonomy registrations with a UI-managed alternative that survives theme switches **Options:** Label, Singular Label, Slug, Description, Type (Tags / Categories), Post Types #### ✏️ Feature 5 — Create Term Add new terms to any taxonomy directly from the admin — no page reload. **What it does:** The Create Term page shows an accordion list of every registered taxonomy. Expand a taxonomy row, type a term title and optional description, and click **Create Term**. The term is saved instantly via AJAX and a confirmation message appears in place — the page never reloads. **Use cases:** * Quickly add a handful of new tags or categories without navigating to the taxonomy list screen * Let an editor add terms to a custom taxonomy they do not have full edit access to * Add terms to multiple taxonomies in a single session without switching between admin screens * Test that a newly registered custom taxonomy is working before importing data into it #### 👥 Feature 6 — User Import & Export Export and import WordPress users by role with a clean two-panel interface. **What it does:** The Users page is split into two side-by-side panels. The Export panel lets you select one or more user roles using checkboxes (or export all users if none are selected) and download a CSV. The Import panel accepts a CSV file and creates or updates user accounts automatically. **Use cases:** * Export all Editor-role users before transferring a site to a new host * Back up your entire user database as a CSV for offline storage * Migrate users from one WordPress site to another without a full database export * Onboard a large number of new users by preparing a CSV and importing in one step * Re-import updated user data after a team has edited roles or details in a spreadsheet #### ✅ Why Choose This Plugin? * **Zero configuration** — activate and start working immediately, no settings page needed * **Preview before download** — verify export data in a table before committing to a file * **Full hierarchy support** — parent–child term relationships preserved on import and export * **No-code taxonomy builder** — register custom taxonomies entirely through the admin UI * **Role-aware user export** — filter users by one or more roles or export everyone at once * **AJAX-powered** — term creation and export preview happen without page reloads * **PHP 8.4 compatible** — no deprecated-function warnings on the latest PHP release * **Translation ready** — all user-facing strings use WordPress i18n functions #### Who Is This For? * **Site administrators** who need to migrate or back up taxonomy data without developer help * **WordPress developers** seeding staging environments or prototyping taxonomy structures quickly * **Content managers** responsible for maintaining large category or tag libraries * **Agency teams** delivering client sites that require custom taxonomy structures built in the admin * **WooCommerce store owners** managing large product category trees #### How It Works 1.

All taxonomies registered in WordPress — built-in (category, post_tag) and custom ones from any theme or plugin, including WooCommerce product categories. ### Can I import terms with parent–child relationships? Yes. Include a `parent_slug` column in your CSV. The importer resolves the parent by slug automatically. ### Does this work with large CSV files? Yes. The importer processes rows one at a time so memory usage stays flat regardless of file size. ### Is it compatible with PHP 8.4? Yes. The deprecated `escape` parameter for `fputcsv()` and `str_getcsv()` has been removed to eliminate warnings on PHP 8.4. ### Can I create a custom taxonomy without writing code? Yes. Use the **Register Taxonomy** page to create, name, and attach a taxonomy to any post type directly from the admin UI. ## Vurderinger ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/7f6ec44f72e7dbdbef9e77cbac5e0d6c0ad51520a76f05fda461d974a08bdc2d? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[AWESOME PLUGIN!!!!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/awesome-plugin-7508/)󠁿 [Tony de la Riva](https://profiles.wordpress.org/delarivabrands805/) 5. juni, 2026 1 svar Works like a dream with one click!
