APT as ACA

Hi, have you tried using the newest version of APT for adding categories to posts? ACA is obsolete and will no longer be developed or supported in the future.

Yes, i am talking about the latest version 1.8.1.

Please see screenshot for my settings.

Ah. Could you please provide me with some sample keyword sets and post content, so that I can try to replicate the issue? (You can also send it to my Gmail address – I use the same handle there.)

Please see these two screenshots. I think you asked for this data.

Have you received my Email?

Yes, I have received your email; now I also have a better idea what the problem is.

There’s an important difference between ACA and the latest APT version – when using the “category” taxonomy, term names should no longer contain category IDs. Categories are now automatically created if the term name doesn’t exist in the particular taxonomy.

So basically you need to replace these IDs in your keyword sets with category names – then categorizing posts should work as expected.

Since you have quite a lot of keyword sets, doing this manually would take forever, so I suggest the following:

1) Find a way to export your category names and their IDs.
2) Export your keyword sets.
3) Import both to some spreadsheet editor, sort these items so that category IDs correspond with term names, replace the term name column in your keyword sets with the other column containing category IDs.
3) Save the file as CSV and import it back to APT.

Ok. I have replaced “Term name” column’s data by “Related keywords” column’s data using copy/paste.
Now plugin is working fine for both functions ( categories and tags ).
Important NOTE: APT is working with Video Blogster Pro perfectly. The point is that
checked box to use “Related keywords” and unchecked box to avoid using “Term name” under section “Search for these KW set items: ” is not working.
I will try to publish a post ASAP on my website about “how to use APT to add categories automatically to posts.
Happy Independence Day To All Pakistanies ( 14-08-2015 ).

So if I understand you correctly, it seems that APT uses term names when searching posts, even though it should only search for related keywords, correct?

Yes you are understanding my point correctly.
In my settings box to use “Related keywords” is checked and the other to use “Term Name” is unchecked as you can see in the screeshot prntscr.com/84ciaf.
But APT was using categories IDs (numeric) getting from column “Term Name”.

Okay. In that case, I’ll need access to your settings, keyword sets and some sample post content (and maybe a screenshot of your post editor page where wrong terms can be seen in the tags/category section), so that I can try to replicate the issue. Could you please export all this stuff and send it to my email?
