Essential tool for getting new taxonomies from dev to staging/live
Once a website has been delivered, any new work in the database needs to be copied across from dev sites to staging and live sites somehow. WordPress has basic support for exporting / importing posts, but if you only want to bring taxonomies across, it has nothing. This handy plugin lets you do that. Nice job, and many thanks!
It may not have been updated in a while, but still working very well on WordPress 6.6 in 2024. There are PHP deprecation warnings in PHP 8.3 (and likely 8.2) but they are only warnings.
