Custom Post Types not available for Custom Taxonomies to be attached to.

    I quite like your plugin, but it has a few issues.

    The biggest of which is the lack of custom Post Types in the list of “Attach to” options when creating a Custom Taxonomy. I was able to get around this by using my browser’s inspector to change the value property of the checkboxes, but that is hardly a good solution.

    Second, please sanitize the “Post type” and “Taxonomy” fields using the sanitize_title_with_dashes() function. I ran in to an problem where my incorrect usage of capitalization (“Products” instead of “products”) in a Custom Taxonomy caused another plugin to fail when checking for its existence via the Taxonomy slug it had sanitized.

    Third, when the “Post type” or “Taxonomy” fields are changed, please update all existing Posts/Terms appropriately.

    Thank you.

    Hi,

    Thank you for your detailed feedback on the plugin.
    1. Normally you should be able to see all existing and WCK-created custom post types. Were the not displayed CPTs created with another plugin, theme or programatically?

    2 & 3. Thank you for reporting these bugs and improvements. We already fixed both renaming and checking correctness of a taxonomy name. We’ll do the same for post types. The fixes will be present in future updates.

    I believe I posted a little prematurely in terms of the first point. I was using the plugin for the first time, experimenting with its capabilities, and incorrectly defining the slugs. I imagine this had something to do with the issues I ran in to. Later I used the plugin again on a new site and didn’t run in to any problems.

    I saw the update to do with the taxonomy names, and I appreciate that you pushed that out so quickly. Makes me less paranoid about typing something wrong and making life more difficult for myself.
