Plugin Description

A new blog, shop or knowledge base often needs a category structure before the first post: topics, subtopics, a dozen tags. Adding them one by one on the Categories screen, then picking the right parent for each, takes a long time. With oakenbit Term Tree Creator it takes one step.

Type or paste an outline, one name per line. Indent a line to make it a child of the line above. The plugin shows you a preview of the tree, then creates every term with the right parent and slug.

What it does

• Nested categories in one go. Any depth. Indent with spaces or tabs, or use leading dashes (“-“, “–“) if you prefer.
• Preview before anything is saved. A table shows every name, its level, its slug and whether it is new or already exists.
• No duplicates. Terms that already exist with the same name and parent are reused, so you can run an outline again later to add missing terms, or add children under an existing category.
• Custom slugs. Write Name | my-slug to set the slug.
• Start under any term. Put the whole outline under an existing parent category.
• Any taxonomy. Categories, tags, and the taxonomies of other plugins and themes. Hierarchical taxonomies keep the tree; flat ones such as tags get a plain list.
• One-click undo. Every run is logged. “Undo” deletes exactly the terms that run created, and only those that no content uses yet.
• Pasting from documents works. List bullets (-, *, •) and non-breaking spaces from word processors are handled.

Built to stay out of the way

• No settings page, no ads, no upsell notices.
• No external requests, no tracking, no cookies. The plugin never contacts any server.
• Only users who can manage categories see the screen, and the plugin checks the right capability for every taxonomy, parent and term.
• Uninstalling removes the plugin’s own data (run log, preferences, markers). The terms you created stay.

How to use

1. Go to Posts > Terms from Outline.
2. Paste your outline. Choose the taxonomy, the parent and how nesting is shown.
3. Click Preview and check the tree.
4. Click Create. You get a list of the new terms with edit links and an Undo button.

For developers

• Filter oakenbit_term_tree_creator_term_args to change the arguments passed to wp_insert_term() for each row (for example to add a description).
• Action oakenbit_term_tree_creator_term_created fires after each term is created.
• Filter oakenbit_term_tree_creator_taxonomies changes the offered taxonomies.
• Filter oakenbit_term_tree_creator_max_items changes the per-run limit (default 500).
• Action oakenbit_term_tree_creator_run_created fires once per run with the IDs of all created terms.
• Action oakenbit_term_tree_creator_form_options lets you add fields to the options column.

Privacy

The plugin does not collect, send or store personal data outside your site. It stores, in your own database, a log of the last 20 runs (date, user ID, taxonomy, IDs of created terms) so runs can be undone, and each user’s last used options.
