tag in terms

Tags are just for posts but Glossary terms are another post type and we offer a glossary taxonomy for that.
If you want to add support for tags also on glossary terms you need this php snippet:

add_action( ‘init’, ‘register_taxonomy_for_object_type’ );
function register_taxonomy_for_object_type() {
register_taxonomy_for_object_type( ‘post_tag’, ‘glossary’ );
};

Great! And where do I put this php snippet?
Thanks a lot for the help.

In the functions.php file of your theme.

Snippet has not been activated due to an error.

Error message:

Cannot redeclare register_taxonomy_for_object_type() (previously declared in /home1/sonho152/special-offer-hub.com/wp-includes/taxonomy.php:722)

What can be wrong?

I added using WP code snippets plugin

Thank you.

Sorry my fault, this one should fix the issue:

add_action( ‘init’, ‘glossary_register_taxonomy_for_object_type’ );
function glossary_register_taxonomy_for_object_type() {
register_taxonomy_for_object_type( ‘post_tag’, ‘glossary’ );
};

I’m embarrassed, but it still didn’t work out…
Now the following error appears:

We encountered an error activating your snippet, please check the syntax and try again. Error message:?Undefined constant ‘init’

Im sorry!

I asked ChatGPT. This should work (works for me at least):

add_action('init', 'glossary_register_taxonomy_for_object_type'); function glossary_register_taxonomy_for_object_type() { register_taxonomy_for_object_type('post_tag', 'glossary'); }

Yes, sorry I copy/pasted a snippet and changed some things but I didn’t noticed that it was using the OSX apix.

This one fix the issues:

add_action( 'init', 'glossary_register_taxonomy_for_object_type' );
function glossary_register_taxonomy_for_object_type() {
register_taxonomy_for_object_type( 'post_tag', 'glossary' );
}

Is it possible to use the tags in your shortcodes?

Like this if I want to show only entries of the tag “SEO”:
[glossary-terms order=”desc” num=”3″ tag=”seo”]

No, our code support only the native glossary-cat taxonomy and not others.
If you want to do that, you need to copy and change the php code to create a new shortcode.

Check our documentation https://docs.codeat.co/glossary/shortcodes/#list-of-terms
