Custom Taxonomy's term cache still lives even after deletion

    Hi, I’ve created a custom taxonomy “net-income”.
    And one of the terms that I made within that taxonomy had spelling error, so I’ve deleted the term and recreated it with correctly spelled term.

    Here is the problem…
    Because the slug is same as the misspelled one, when I try to edit
    the term’s slug, it says it’s already used by a term.

    I think there is a cache problem, because even though i’ve deleted it, it still thinks it exists.

    is there way to clear the cache or fix this?

    the misspelled term was:
    $0-$5,0000 with slug: 0-5000

    the corrected term is:
    $0-$5K with slug: 0-5000

    please help.
    thank you.

    O, and even if I delete the taxonomy “net-income” entirely
    and recreate the same “net-income” again, it still retains the list of terms that i created it with the previous session.

    but when I try to delete it acts like if there isn’t anything available to delete.

    The taxonomies and terms are retained in the database, so while they may not be visible in the Dashboard, they still exist in the database. This is just how WordPress works with registered taxonomies/terms.

    Looks like all you needed to do was change the name, not the slug, which can be done by just editing that term.
