Most commonly taxonomy sorting plugins will create a new interface to drag or order\/sort your terms. This plugin uses the built-in view just to make things easier. Just grab the term and drag it to a new position. No more extra clicks - everything is saved after repositioning!<\/p>\n\n
The order is applied to term queries that did not ask for an order of their own. A query that explicitly sorts by count, slug, term order or anything else gets what it asked for, so themes and plugins that sort terms themselves are left alone.<\/p>\n\n\n
the-taxonomy-sort\/<\/code> folder to the \/wp-content\/plugins\/<\/code> directory<\/li>\n- Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress<\/li>\n
- Go to taxonomy page (for example Posts -> Categories) and drag the table rows to change ordering.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n
\nIs there a way to disable it for some taxonomies?<\/h3><\/dt>\nYes, as of version 2.1. Return the taxonomies it should apply to, and it applies to no others:<\/p>\n\n
add_filter( 'the_taxonomy_sort_define_taxonomies', function () {\n return array( 'category', 'product_cat' );\n} );\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\nFor a decision per query - one taxonomy sorted in the admin but not on the front end, say - there is the_taxonomy_sort_is_sortable<\/code>:<\/p>\n\nadd_filter( 'the_taxonomy_sort_is_sortable', function ( $sortable, $taxonomies, $args ) {\n return is_admin() ? $sortable : false;\n}, 10, 3 );\n<\/code><\/pre><\/dd>\nDoes it work with hierarchical taxonomies?<\/h3><\/dt>\nYes. Terms are ordered among their siblings; WordPress still nests children under their parent, so dragging a child to the top of the list moves it to the top of its own branch.<\/p><\/dd>\n
Who is allowed to reorder terms?<\/h3><\/dt>\nWhoever may manage that taxonomy's terms - the same capability WordPress checks before showing the taxonomy screen.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n
2.1<\/h4>\n\n\n- Fix: term queries that ask for ids, names or slugs came back empty, which emptied tag autocomplete, WooCommerce attribute terms and anything else built on them<\/li>\n
- Fix: two terms sharing a position made one of them disappear from every list<\/li>\n
- Fix: the sorting no longer costs one database query per term - it is done in SQL, in the query that was going to run anyway<\/li>\n
- Fix: dragging on page two of a paginated taxonomy no longer renumbers over page one, which is what made the last terms of a long list look unsortable<\/li>\n
- Fix: rows can be dragged past the bottom of the table again<\/li>\n
- Fix: uninstalling now removes the order it saved (it was deleting post meta, where nothing was ever stored)<\/li>\n
- Security: saving an order now requires a nonce and the capability to manage that taxonomy's terms; any logged-in user could previously reorder every term on the site<\/li>\n
- Feature:
the_taxonomy_sort_define_taxonomies<\/code> and the_taxonomy_sort_is_sortable<\/code> filters to limit where the order applies<\/li>\n- Queries that ask for a specific order are left alone, so term sorting done by themes and other plugins keeps working<\/li>\n
- Tested against PHP 8.4 and WordPress 7.1<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
2.0<\/h4>\n\n\n- Using now term meta<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
1.1<\/h4>\n\n\n- Fix: Uninstallation hook notice<\/li>\n
- Feature: Activity spinner on saving the order<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
