<p>Have you ever been frustrated adding more and more categories or tags or any other terms in a rush? Don’t worry anymore. You can add thousands of terms in one go with this plugin.</p>
<h3>How do I do that?</h3>
<ol>
<li>Install the plugin and activate. A new menu called ‘Add Bulk Terms’ will pop up.</li>
<li>Click on the menu and you’ll be taken to a new page where you will see all the registered taxonomy either by theme or any plugin.</li>
<li>First select a taxonomy which you want to add terms.</li>
<li>Then insert the terms in the right side textarea. Make sure each line contains only one term.</li>
<li>Click on ‘Add Now’ button. A little confirmation will pop up just to make sure you have inserted everything correctly. Click yes and BOOM. All terms are added.</li>
</ol>
<h3>What about nesting parent and child?</h3>
<p>This plugin supports to do that. You can go and do nesting. You can indent child levels with a dash (-). For example:</p>
<pre><code>Foo
-Bar
-Baz
</code></pre>
<p>In the example above, ‘foo’ will be parent while ‘bar’ and ‘baz’ will be child of it.<br />
You can use correct indent to make even more child of child. Example:</p>
<pre><code>Foo
-Bar
--Baz
</code></pre>
<p>Complex nesting example:</p>
<pre><code>Foo
-Child of Foo~~foo-custom-slug
--Grand child of Foo~~grand-child-slug
-Second child of Foo
Baz is sibling of Foo
-Nephew of Foo
--Grand child of Baz
--Second grand child
-Son of Baz
-Daughter of Baz~~daughter-custom-slug
I am a lonely term
Do not have child
</code></pre>
<p>Unfortunately the maximum supported level is as deep as the SEA.</p>

<ul>
<li>Unlimited terms per time</li>
<li>Unlimited level of nesting</li>

<p>Advanced Taxonomy Manager provides an enhanced interface for managing every WordPress taxonomy from one place. Organize categories, tags, and any custom taxonomy with an intuitive, drag-and-drop hierarchy editor that goes well beyond the standard WordPress term screens.</p>
<p>Switch between four ways of viewing your terms — a dense Compact List, cascading Columns, spacious Cards, or a Tree diagram — and reorganize them by drag and drop, including reordering and re-nesting with a live “where will this land” hint.</p>
<p>It is completely free and works with all of your public taxonomies.</p>
<h4>Key Features</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>All Taxonomies</strong> – Manage categories, tags, and any custom taxonomy from a single editor</li>
<li><strong>Four Term Views</strong> – Switch between Compact List, Columns (Miller), Cards, and Tree layouts, and set your preferred default</li>
<li><strong>Drag to Reorder & Re-nest</strong> – Drag a term to reorder it among its siblings or drag sideways to nest it under another term (or outdent it), with a live placement note showing exactly where it will land</li>
<li><strong>Bulk Actions</strong> – Multi-select terms to Move them under a new parent, Merge several terms into one, or Delete in bulk</li>
<li><strong>Manual Ordering</strong> – Set a custom term order in the editor and optionally apply that order across the front end of your site</li>
<li><strong>Search Everywhere</strong> – Filter and find terms instantly in every view</li>
<li><strong>AI-Powered Descriptions</strong> – Optionally generate term descriptions with your own OpenAI API key, and choose which model to use</li>
<li><strong>Term Insights</strong> – View a term’s public archive and see the posts assigned to it in a paginated popup</li>
<li><strong>Import/Export</strong> – Transfer term structures between sites with JSON import/export</li>
<li><strong>Native Categories Integration</strong> – The Posts > Categories menu opens directly into the manager, with a link back to the classic WordPress screen any time</li>
</ul>
<h3>External services</h3>
<p>This plugin offers an optional integration with the OpenAI API for generating term descriptions:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>What it does</strong>: When enabled and configured with an API key, the plugin can generate descriptive text for your terms using OpenAI’s language models.</li>
<li><strong>When data is sent</strong>: Data is only sent to OpenAI when you explicitly click the “Generate Description” button in the term editor, or when you click “Validate Key” in the settings to check your API key.</li>
<li><strong>What data is sent</strong>: The plugin sends the term name and a customizable prompt to OpenAI’s servers. Validating a key sends a request to OpenAI authenticated with that key.</li>
<li><strong>Terms of Service</strong>: <a href="https://openai.com/policies/terms-of-use" rel="nofollow ugc">OpenAI Terms of Service</a></li>
<li><strong>Privacy Policy</strong>: <a href="https://openai.com/policies/privacy-policy" rel="nofollow ugc">OpenAI Privacy Policy</a></li>
</ul>
<p>This feature is completely optional and requires you to provide your own OpenAI API key in the plugin settings. No data is sent to OpenAI unless you explicitly initiate the description generation or key validation.</p>
