Overview
WordPress taxonomy terms can hold more information than a name and description. MB Term Meta lets you define custom fields for categories, tags, and other taxonomies, so each term can have details such as an image, color, icon, or text value. These fields appear in the WordPress admin interface and use the Meta Box structure.
Use the stored term data to shape how taxonomy pages and content appear on the front end. The plugin supports Meta Box field types, along with cloning and validation, for repeated values and fields that need rules. It also provides a block bindings source for taxonomy fields, giving developers another way to connect term data with blocks.
Features
- Fields for taxonomy terms: Add custom fields to categories, tags, and custom taxonomy terms to store information beyond each term’s standard description.
- Meta Box field types: Use Meta Box field types for term data, including text, images, checkboxes, and other field types supported by Meta Box.
- Cloning and validation: Clone fields for repeated term metadata and apply validation rules to the values entered for taxonomy terms.
- Familiar admin interface: Manage term fields through the WordPress admin interface, using the syntax and structure familiar to Meta Box users.
- Block bindings source: Use the block bindings source for taxonomy fields to connect term metadata with blocks in your WordPress content.
- Flexible term details: Store information such as featured images, custom colors, icons, SEO titles, descriptions, and category-specific template data.
