<html><body style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; ">Hello WP-Edu folks-<div><br></div><div>I'm working on a basic ePortfolio system using four custom taxonomies for the pages post type. The pages act as the artifacts. Each custom taxonomy needs to be pre-populated with terms.</div><div><br></div><div>So far, the taxonomies are working just fine and they have been pre-populated successfully - all of this is packaged in a must use plugin on each site.</div><div><br></div><div>However, when terms need to be edited or all-out deleted it's not straight forward.</div><div><br></div><div>For example, if I want to edit the description of a course in the courses taxonomy the database doesn't recognize that it is an <i>edit</i> and misconstrues it as an <i>additional</i> term. So, now two terms exist, of which one is now misleading. The second issue presents itself when a term needs to be deleted. Because wp_delete_term requires an ID and the IDs for each pre-populated term may be different across varying sites, I can't (at least I don't think I can) programatically delete the unnecessary term(s) across the entire site.<br><div><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: -webkit-auto; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: none; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; font-size: medium; "><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: none; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; font-size: medium; "><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: none; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; font-size: medium; "><div>Does anyone have any experience pre-populating terms and then managing them?</div><div><br></div><div>I can provide the plugin if that helps anyone understand better my goals here.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks,<br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><br class="Apple-interchange-newline">~Kyle M.
