Order all of the taxonomy terms on your site with a simple to use, intuitive drag and drop interface. The plugin works for WordPress core taxonomies — Categories and Tags — and any custom taxonomies you have created.
Activate the plugin, enable your taxonomy on the settings page, and drag and drop the taxonomies into the desired position. It couldn’t be easier.
On the front end of the site your taxonomy terms will display in the order set in the dashboard.
Requires WordPress 4.4 or later due to the use of the term meta. 
Query Usage
<ul>
<li>If you’re trying to query for taxonomy terms (e.g. using <code>WP_Query</code> or functions like <code>get_terms()</code>), and you’d like them to be returned in the order specified by the plugin, you need to add the tax_position parameter in your call. For example: <code>'meta_key' => 'tax_position'</code> and <code>'orderby' => 'tax_position'</code>. Thanks to @certainlyakey on GitHub for pointing this out.</li>
</ul>

Simple Taxonomy Ordering

I think this is the easiest/best custom Taxonomy order plugin, as it keeps it within the same WordPress admin screen, does not create its own page. 

Simple

Works like a charm - use it

The best drag&drop ordering of terms so far.

Thanks so much!!

How it works:
<ol>
<li>
Click ‘Tools > Bulk Term Editor’.
</li>
<li>
Select a taxonomy. 
If you selected a taxonomy which has terms, it will read those into the field.
</li>
<li>
Get your data ready. 
Prepare your data by spreadsheet such as Excel. 
If you selected a taxonomy which has terms at the step 2, it’s easy to copy that data into the spreadsheet.
</li>
<li>
Copy the cells. 
You may copy all lines, but the more lines there are, the more times spends. 
Copying the minimum necessary lines is the best, but safer to copy all lines.
</li>
<li>
Paste to this plugin. 
Paste it into the ‘Term’ field of this plugin.
</li>
<li>
Execute. 
Clicking the ‘Edit’ button executes it.
</li>
</ol>
<h4>Delete</h4>
Entering a ‘*’ in beginning of line will delete.
<h4>Change the term slug</h4>
Entering a ‘>New slug’ after the term slug will change the term slug.
<h4>Add</h4>
When the term slug is a blank or new, add.

Bulk Term Editor

Just came here to say THANK YOU, this plugin is a very very handy and useful tool to manage BIG list of taxonomies. Thank you. 

Awesome Job! Thanks

You can register or edit terms in bulk. Copy cells in the spreadsheet, all that remains is to paste to this plugin.
