# WordPress Term Limits

> Limits terms (categories, post tags, custom taxonomy terms) on a per post type basis

Do you have lazy authors who don't care using a single tag?

Do you have wannabe SEO experts using all of your tags on each post?

Set an end to that. Just like seen on StackOverflow and other

StackExchange sites: minimum 1 tag, maximum 5.

(Yes you can define the amount yourself)

Needs **PHP 5.4+** to run. Will break with lower PHP versions.

### Is this a plugin?

**Yes**. For WordPress.

## How to install?

You can simply download it and are ready to go. Still the following options are preferred.

Or just install/import it into your project using Composer

	composer create-project wcm/termlimits

Or clone the repository into your plugin directory using git

	git clone [email protected]:wecodemore/wcm-termlimit.git

## How to use?

Per default, there is a minimum of `0` terms that need to get added.

The maximum is `3`. And the limit only applies for the `post` post type.

To alter the limit or the type, there are two filters that you can use in

a small child plugin:

```

append( explode( ",", filter_var(

			$_POST['tax_input']['custom_terms'],

			FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING,

			[ FILTER_NULL_ON_FAILURE, ]

		) ) );

	}

}

```

To see what exactly you should take as input/`$_POST` value, use

the following mini-plugin to dump your `save_post` action.

```
