Hello! I have a true/false option field. If the option is set to 1, I’d like to have my custom plugin register a taxonomy. Here’s my current code, however, it’s not registering the tax. What might I be doing wrong here? Thanks in advance for any assistance!

function wed_get_vendor_enable() {
	$enablevendortax = get_field('enable_vendor_tax', 'option');
	
	if($enablevendortax='1') {	
	/**
	 * Taxonomy: Vendors.
	 */

		function register_my_cpts_wed_vendors() {
			$labels = array(
				"name" => __( "Vendors", "wed" ),
				"singular_name" => __( "Vendors", "wed" ),
			);

			$args = array(
				"label" => __( "Vendors", "wed" ),
				"labels" => $labels,
				"public" => true,
				"publicly_queryable" => true,
				"hierarchical" => false,
				"show_ui" => true,
				"show_in_menu" => true,
				"show_in_nav_menus" => true,
				"query_var" => true,
				"rewrite" => array( 'slug' => 'vendors', 'with_front' => true, ),
				"show_admin_column" => true,
				"show_in_rest" => true,
				"rest_base" => "wed_vendors",
				"rest_controller_class" => "WP_REST_Terms_Controller",
				"show_in_quick_edit" => false,
			);
			register_taxonomy( "wed_vendors", array( "post", "wed_vendor"), $args );
		}
	}
}

add_action( 'init', 'wed_get_vendor_enable' );

UPDATE: This is solved. In case anyone wants to register a taxonomy based upon an option field, here’s how to do it:

function register_my_cpts_wed_vendors() {
	$labels = array(
		"name" => __( "Vendors", "wed" ),
		"singular_name" => __( "Vendors", "wed" ),
	);

	$args = array(
		"label" => __( "Vendors", "wed" ),
		"labels" => $labels,
		"public" => true,
		"publicly_queryable" => true,
		"hierarchical" => false,
		"show_ui" => true,
		"show_in_menu" => true,
		"show_in_nav_menus" => true,
		"query_var" => true,
		"rewrite" => array( 'slug' => 'vendors', 'with_front' => true, ),
		"show_admin_column" => true,
		"show_in_rest" => true,
		"rest_base" => "wed_vendors",
		"rest_controller_class" => "WP_REST_Terms_Controller",
		"show_in_quick_edit" => false,
	);
	register_taxonomy( "wed_vendors", array( "post", "wed_vendor"), $args );
}

add_action( 'register_wed_vendors','register_my_cpts_wed_vendors', 10, 2 );

function wed_get_vendor_enable() {
	$enablevendortax = get_field('enable_vendor_tax', 'option');
	
	if($enablevendortax=='1') {	
		do_action('register_wed_vendors' );
	}
}

add_action( 'init', 'wed_get_vendor_enable' );
