My overall goal is to create taxonomies dynamically in the admin, then use those to filter results on the frontend.
I have an options page setup with ACF with a repeater inside that I use to create the taxonomies. Here is the code for that.
function add_filters() {
while(has_sub_field('filters', 'option')):
$filter_name = get_sub_field('filter_name');
$filter_name_slug = urlFriendlyString($filter_name);
$filter_name_underscore = urlFriendlyStringUnderscore($filter_name);
$filter_name_plural = $filter_name . 's';
// Register Taxonomies
if(!taxonomy_exists($filter_name_underscore)){
register_taxonomy(
$filter_name_underscore,
'nl_sig_weddings',
array(
'label' => __($filter_name),
'hierarchical' => false,
'rewrite' => array('slug' => $filter_name_slug),
'show_in_menu' => false
)
);
}
endwhile;
}
add_action( 'init', 'add_filters');
This is working fine, however the problem is when I delete one of the taxonomies from the options page I need a way to remove it along with all of the terms. So basically, get all list of all taxonomies and compare it to the fields in the options page. If a taxonomy isn’t in the options page delete it along with all of it’s terms.
I can get an array of all taxonomies with the code below but how would I go about comparing those taxonomies to the ones in the option page and delete ones not list?
$customPostTaxonomies = get_object_taxonomies('nl_sig_weddings');
var_dump($customPostTaxonomies);
Any help would be appreciated!
