Editing Nested Taxonomies

Hello,

I’ve never had to use Taxonomies in ACF Pro so I am used to the way categories work in WP.

I created two taxonomies in ACF (Commercial & Residential) with the Hierarchical option turned on. I need to nest categories as sub-categories (child taxonomies?). I made them visible for my custom post type and then used the +Add New Commercial to add child taxonomies.

It seems to be working but now the newly added categories need to be changed. I have no idea where they reside and if there is any way to edit them. I’ve searched on this forum and other places but can’t find the answer.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Nevermind, I just figured it out.

For anyone with the same question:
After you create child/nested taxonomies via the Add New in the CPT, the Terms shows up in the main Taxonomies menu in ACF Pro.

Under Terms at the far right, there will be a number. Click on that number and it takes you to a screen where you can add/edit those child taxonomies. You have to have add at least one first or nothing shows up there.

Hope this helps someone (or maybe I was the only one who didn’t know this).
