WordPress Term Limits
=====================

[](#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?

[](#is-this-a-plugin)

**Yes**. For WordPress.

How to install?
---------------

[](#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 git@github.com:wecodemore/wcm-termlimit.git

```

How to use?
-----------

[](#how-to-use)
