I am not sure if I understand what exactly do you mean. Do you want to remove existing tags? Why not just use the option “Replace old tags with newly generated tags”?

Hello, this plugin is fully automatic. It automatically assigns tags to a post after it is published, so it is perfect for autoblogs. You just have to create a list of tags and leave the rest to the plugin.

That’s exactly what I intend to implement.

I hope that the next version will be available in one or two weeks.

Yeah, I could do that, but then I would have to make same updates for 2 plugins and the other one would not have universal use anyway. So when I finish working on APT I will make another plugin where you will be able to make any rules for any taxonomies (without changing the code).

In the meantime you’ll just have to use a copy of this plugin for adding categories, I think that changing one taxonomy name and all prefixes isn’t that hard, is it? ??

This is a known issue that should be fixed in the next version. After clicking the button, APT starts to assign tags but because of the low max. execution time on your server the script is stopped before tagging is finished.

You can try deleting all word separators and using the option “Replace non-alphanumeric characters with spaces” but it still may not help with so many tags and posts.

Well, this is not really about copy-pasting, it is a bit harder than that. ??

In version 1.3 in the file automatic-post-tagger.php on line 714 begins a section where tags are being added to the post. So basically in order to add categories to a post you need to replace there the “post_tag” parameter with “category” – more information here: https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Function_Reference/wp_set_post_terms).

Then it would add categories that are defined on the “tag” list in the admin interface.

If you’ll decide to use this modified version and also the original plugin, you will need to rename added option names and the custom database table. I recommend you doing that by replacing all ocurrences of the prefix “apt_” with whatever you want.

It could be done more efficiently, though, but this is the easiest solution that I came up with. If you are not in a hurry, wait some time for my new plugin (but it may take months, depending on my laziness. :))

Sorry I am not working on that feature yet, I have to implement all necessary functions first.

I could give you a hint how to modify the script to make it work for categories if you are at least a bit familiar with PHP though.

After several days everything seems to be OK. I just need to be more patient. ??

Hello, I made my own auto tagging plugin that should support all latin-based alphabets. Give it a try!

Hi, it is possible. There are two ways to achieve this:

1) Don’t allow the option “Strip PHP/HTML tags from analysed content” and use default word separators.

2) Use the option “Replace non-alphanumeric characters with spaces”. Then everything that is not a letter or a number will be treated as a separator.

With this settings APT is able to analyse the content of HTML tags. For example this tag <img src="https://example.com/image-name.jpg" title="My image"> will be recognized as the following string:

img src http example com image name jpg title My image

If you add “image name” to your list of APT tags then it will be found and assigned to your post as a tag.

Guys check out my autotagging plugin, it works just fine.

But it doesn’t use external API so you’ll have to spare a minute or two to make a list of your own tags.

Slideit, check out my plugin Automatic Post Tagger, it supports latin alphabets just fine.

Thanks, I added it to my to-do list.

Okay then. I am going to release two or three more versions of this plugin and after that I will start working on another plugin that will be able to handle other taxonomies, including custom ones.

If you give this plugin 5 stars and share it with others, it will motivate me to work faster. ??

APT is able to delete only those tags that are present in its own MySQL table.

You can delete all your tags via the administration interface (https://i49.tinypic.com/2vmimme.png) or by a SQL query via your phpMyAdmin or your theme file functions.php (use function mysql_query(“$sql_command”); for that – replace the variable with the query below):

DELETE a,b,c
FROM
	database.prefix_terms AS a
	LEFT JOIN database.prefix_term_taxonomy AS c ON a.term_id = c.term_id
	LEFT JOIN database.prefix_term_relationships AS b ON b.term_taxonomy_id = c.term_taxonomy_id
WHERE (
	c.taxonomy = 'post_tag' AND
	c.count = 0
	);
