<p>Taxonomies Sortable allow to sort non-hierarchical taxonomy terms associated to objects by drag&drop them on the administration interface.</p>
<h3>Usage</h3>
<p>Once the plugin is installed you can make a taxonomy sortable in the following ways:</p>
<ul>
<li>Programmatically by adding <code>'sortable' => true</code> argument in <code>register_taxonomy()</code>.</li>
<li>Programmatically by using <code>taxonomies_sortable</code> filter below.</li>
<li>Using the <em>Settings->Taxonomies Sortable</em> administration screen by selecting non-hierarchical taxonomies you want to make sortable.</li>
</ul>
<p>Note that making a taxonomy sortable, implicitly means also setting <code>sort => true</code> for that taxonomy.</p>
<h3>Hooks</h3>
<p><strong><code>taxonomies_sortable</code></strong></p>
<p>Filter allowing to programmatically set sortable taxonomies.</p>
<pre><code>apply_filters( 'taxonomies_sortable', array $taxonomies )
</code></pre>
<p><strong><code>taxonomies_sortable_admin_settings</code></strong></p>
<p>Filter allowing to display or not the plugin settings page in the administration.</p>
<pre><code>apply_filters( 'taxonomies_sortable_admin_settings', boolean $display )
</code></pre>

<p>FSM Backend Category Organizer allows you to group and organize the categories (or any other user-created hierarchical taxonomy) on the post editing page, making it easier to sort through them in environments where there is a large number of categories.</p>
<h4>The limitations of WordPress in assigning categories</h4>
<p>By default, the WordPress category assignment box shows the categories in a list format only. This method can cause usability problems in environments with a lot of categories, especially when the users must scroll down a lot to see all of them.</p>
<p>Additionally, it’s impossible to check at a glance all the categories that have already been assigned, due to the small dimensions of the box.</p>
<h4>The FSM Backend Category Organizer solution</h4>
<p>FSM Backend Category Organizer allows you to present the categories and another taxonomy items in a different and more organized way. Any main taxonomy item can become a tab that will display only their sub-items, separately from the rest. You can create as many item-tabs as you wish and order them however you want, or you can just create a list of all the first level categories in the current taxonomy (containing at least one child) by clicking the “Populate” button.</p>
<p>All assigned items can be viewed at a glance in a list format, regardless of which tab has been marked. They can also be deselected quickly from this list.</p>
<p>The plugin also allows you to show and hide the standard “All Categories” tab.</p>
<h4>Translations</h4>
<p>The plugin comes up with 3 complete translations:</p>
<ul>
<li>English (en)</li>
<li>Spanish (es_ES)</li>
<li>Catalan (ca)</li>
</ul>
<h4>Some tips</h4>
<p>You can move the new taxonomy assignment box to any position within the post editing page. We recommend to drag it to the main column, the widest, for a better fit.</p>
<h4>Coming soon</h4>
<ul>
<li>On the fly tab auto-generator.</li>
<li>Mix categories in any group, no matter their hierarchies.</li>
<li>Control which users can organize categories.</li>
<li>(Got more ideas? We are open to hear!)</li>
</ul>
