Visual Term Description Editor

This plugin is very helpful specially for those client user who want to use the classic editor. Hope to update and maintain this plugin. Thank you.

This is very helpful

Love the simplicity


Great plugin to allow you to make your term descriptions more visually appealing. It works just fine with WP 6.3 in lieu of implementing the block editor for term descriptions.
