About this plugin
Tag Steward Lite helps administrators organise WordPress Post Tags and WooCommerce Product Tags through a review-first workflow. Every feature described in this listing is included, enabled by default and processed locally.
Tag Steward includes four operations:
- Create a new tag after checking its proposed name and slug.
- Add a destination tag to the unique content found through one or more selected scope tags.
- Remove one or more selected tags from affected content.
- Rename one selected tag after checking for name and slug conflicts.
Before content is changed, Tag Steward displays the complete affected-content scope, proposed assignments and safety checks. Preparation freezes the reviewed scope, and processing uses controlled batches of no more than 10 items. Each changed item is checked immediately for unexpected drift.
Add and Remove accept any non-empty source-tag selection. Rename operates on exactly one tag because it changes that individual term’s identity. Every operation prepares the complete affected-content set regardless of its size, then processes it in controlled batches of no more than 10 items.
Protected Classifications
Protected Classifications add stronger visibility and stop-on-drift checks for important non-target taxonomy terms.
- Post Tag mode supports Categories and eligible public custom Post taxonomies.
- Product Tag mode supports Product Categories, brands, attributes and eligible public Product taxonomies.
- Post and Product protection settings remain separate.
- Post Tags and Product Tags cannot themselves be Protected Classifications.
Safety and recovery
Tag Steward records publication status, taxonomy assignments and relevant content state before an operation. WooCommerce previews also record product properties and relationships. Unexpected changes stop the remaining operation.
Private operation history and recovery reports are retained for the administrator who prepared them. Recovery is offered only when Tag Steward can prove that the recorded restoration is complete and the current state remains compatible.
Tag Steward never intentionally publishes, unpublishes or deletes posts, products or taxonomy terms.
Privacy
All tag processing and operation history remain inside the WordPress installation. Tag Steward contains no analytics or telemetry and does not contact an external service.
