Toolset Can’t See Taxonomies Created with Other Plugins

    Hi,
    I have some custom taxonomies and custom fields that I created with other plugins. Now I think that the full version of Toolset and Views will do what I plan to do.

    However, after installing Types it doesn’t see my custom taxonomies. When I click on Toolset>Taxonomies it only sees Categories and Tags. But if I go to Toolset>Post Types>Post my custom taxonomies will show up there in “Taxonomies to be used with Post” (but not in the overview, one screen before).

    CPT UI sees all my custom taxonomies (in “Post Types and Taxonomies registered by Custom Post Type UI”). What is going on and is there a way to fix it? I would like to upgrade to the full version of Toolset, but would hate to re-create my taxonomies and assign them again to all posts.

    You create a Taxonomy or Post Type outside of Types, therefore this are not managed with types, and then you can not see them in the Toolset > Taxnomy or Toolset > Post Types screens.

    Here is a DOC on how you could port them to Toolset:

    Thank you very much for your answer Beda. Unfortunately, I cannot find the slugs or terms in functions.php but when I try to create them in Toolset it says these slugs are already reserved.
    Is there any other place where I could find them and delete apart from functions.php?

    I couldn’t find them in functions.php but I did a test and deleting the taxonomies in CPT UI and re-creating the slugs in Types seems to do the trick and preserves the taxonomy terms in posts. I just hope I won’t have unpleasant surprises later on ?? Thanks ??
