Prohibited Tags or Categories

With the PublishPress Checklists plugin, you can require that all your posts do not have specific terms such as Tags or Categories. If a post has the chosen term, you can choose to show a warning, or prevent the post from being published.

  • Go to the “Tags” or “Categories” tab. The image below shows the Prohibited Categories options.
  • You can choose from “Disabled, Recommended, or Required” options.
  • You can enter choices for which terms are prohibited.
