The “Auto Terms” feature in Taxonomies Pro allows you to generate terms for your WordPress content. There are several methods available to scan your content and suggest terms.
When to Use Auto Terms #
The “When to Use” tab allows you to choose the settings for each method:
- Posts: This runs Auto Terms when a post is saved or updated.
- Schedule: This runs the Auto Terms feature on a daily or hourly schedule. Click here for more details.
- Existing Content: This allows you to run the Auto Terms feature on existing content. Click here for more details.
- Metaboxes: This allows users to run the Auto Terms feature when editing content. Click here for more details.
Options for the “Posts” and “Schedule” settings #
- Auto Terms Limit: This controls the maximum number of terms that can be added to each post.
- Target content: This option allows you to avoid adding extra terms if the post already has terms. For example, if this is unchecked, Auto Terms will add the term “Press” to a post if it finds the word “WordPress”.
- Whole words: This option will force Taxonomies to look only for whole words. For example, if you leave this unchecked, Taxonomies will automatically add the term “Blog” if it finds the words “blogger” or “blogging”.
- Hashtags: If this option is also enabled, you will be able to use the # symbol and still create terms. So if you use “#WordPress” in a post, Taxonomies will be able to automatically add a term “WordPress”.
