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!!

Quickly and easily reorder taxonomy terms with an easy to use and intuitive drag and drop interface.

pluginize

This plugin allows you to select your “From”, and “To” Taxonomies, to convert all terms. Optionally select a parent term to limit terms to switch. Typing term names will do a live search of terms with the name you are typing AND possess child terms.
Plugin also has built-in support for <a href="http://wp-cli.org/" rel="nofollow ugc">WP-CLI</a>. In the command line, type in <code>wp taxonomy-switcher</code> for instructions.
<a href="https://github.com/WebDevStudios/taxonomy-switcher" rel="nofollow ugc">Plugin is on GitHub</a>. Pull Requests and Forks welcome.
<h3>Notes</h3>
Please keep in mind, if parent isn’t set, or you don’t specify a comma-separated list of term ids to migrate, it will migrate all terms for that taxonomy to the new taxonomy.

Taxonomy Switcher

Not sure the forum policy on swearing on here, but this plugin is chuffing amazing, saved my bottom recently as I imported ~7000 term into the wrong taxonomy, and it transferred it over no fuss.

This saved my bottom!

Don't let the small number of active installs fool you: This tool does what it says and does it well. Once the data is modified, most people (like myself) probably uninstall it.

Kudos to the Authors!

Awesome Tool!

Does exactly what it claims to do and works flawlessly. Thanks!!

Awesome!


I started using this plugin recentlyThanks for the CLI support



Works as expected


Kudos to CLI support

Switch the taxonomy for all terms or only child terms of a specified parent term.
