Taxonomy Checkbox

    I created a taxonomy for a custom post type called “Resource Categories”. How can I display the terms in checkboxes instead of having to type them for my custom post type?

    Never mind. I was able to do this with the ACF Plugin.

    I was actually able to get the custom taxonomy to show as checkboxes without having to add an ACF field, but I honestly don’t remember how I did it? I set a few options to false, and then it happened. Can you tell me what setting to adjust to get the custom taxonomy to appear as checkboxes?

    Never mind again. I found it. I just set hierarchical to true.

    Setting the taxonomy to “hierarchical” would have achieved this as well, making them behave more like categories than tags.

    Welcome

    Hi. I’m having this issue too! I can’t seem to get them to show as a checkbox – can you list which are set to false and which are set to true? I did it once accidentally but can’t seem to recreate it.

    Thank you ??
