> Adds the possibility to protect taxonomy terms from being deleted when they are being referenced in certain fields.

## Why?

- Deleting a taxonomy term when it is still being referenced on another

  entity can do a lot of damage if the underlying code doesn't handle

  this situation.

- This could be fixed by doing null checks in your code, but sometimes

  it makes more sense to just prevent the user from deleting those

  terms.

## Installation

This package requires PHP 7.1 and Drupal 8 or higher. It can be

installed using Composer:

```bash

 composer require wieni/wmprotected_vocabulary

```

## How does it work?

When trying to delete a protected taxonomy term with references, a

message is shown and the confirmation button will be disabled.

### Configuration

The functionality can be enabled on a per-vocabulary level by checking

the _Protect_ checkbox on the vocabulary edit page. The _Protect fields_

option can be used to configure which fields should be used when

counting the references of a taxonomy term.
