Complete disable of Page/Post content area

If I had to give it a shot, this would be my first attempt (untested):

In functions.php assuming taxonomy is registered as “my-taxonomy”

// Remove editor support for my-taxonomy
if ( is_admin() && ( ! defined( 'DOING_AJAX' ) || ! DOING_AJAX ) ) {
  add_action( 'add_meta_boxes', function(){
    global $post; // Should be available at this hook.
    $terms = wp_get_post_terms( $post->ID, 'my-taxonomy' );
    if( ! empty( $terms ) && ! is_wp_error( $terms ) ) {
      remove_post_type_support( get_post_type(), 'editor' );
    }
  });
} // endif(is_admin)

Try it out and let me know how it goes. Good luck!

had some luck with this but can not seem to direct it at only a specific taxonomy. Only seems to work on posts.

add_action( 'init', 'my_custom_init' );
function my_custom_init() {
	remove_post_type_support( 'post', 'excerpt' );
}

add_action( 'init', 'my_custom_init2' );
function my_custom_init2() {
	remove_post_type_support( 'post', 'editor' );
}

That’s because you’re only removing the support from posts, not all post types. I take it my function posted above didn’t work for you?

I just tested mine, it works as expected. Try it, and let me know if it works for you too.

also, init is too early, the query hasn’t been parsed yet, so you can’t target a taxonomy.

I tried the following with no luck in functions.php running wordpress 4.0
the good news is that “remove_post_type_support” does work, so thank you for that! would be nice to get this working… seems like a nice chunk of code, so thank you for that as well.

// Remove editor support for my-taxonomy
if ( is_admin() && ( ! defined( 'DOING_AJAX' ) || ! DOING_AJAX ) ) {
  add_action( 'add_meta_boxes', function(){
    global $post; // Should be available at this hook.
    $terms = wp_get_post_terms( $post->ID, 'post' );
//////// no luck on posts
    if( ! empty( $terms ) && ! is_wp_error( $terms ) ) {
      remove_post_type_support( get_post_type(), 'editor' );
    }
  });
} // endif(is_admin)

// Remove editor support for my-taxonomy
if ( is_admin() && ( ! defined( 'DOING_AJAX' ) || ! DOING_AJAX ) ) {
  add_action( 'add_meta_boxes', function(){
    global $post; // Should be available at this hook.
    $terms = wp_get_post_terms( $post->ID, 'page' );
//////// no luck on page
    if( ! empty( $terms ) && ! is_wp_error( $terms ) ) {
      remove_post_type_support( get_post_type(), 'editor' );
    }
  });
} // endif(is_admin)

PS: this could be a theme issue, so far the theme is sane, but there is some funky stuff in it. technically I should try this on a blank theme or ground up install, so don’t waste too much time on this, knowing about remove_post_type_support is helpful to me.

You can use Custom Meta Boxes and follow this guide to use Javascript to hide or show meta boxes based on certain criteria.

This is resolved, Christian1012 provided the correct answer.
