    Well, I renamed a taxonomy by changing its Name/Slug and Label and it deleted every associated terms in every posts that used the taxonomy.

    Maybe i did not proceed the right way?

    thanx for any advice

    Even I got almost similar problem. I renamed the taxonomy from the functions.php file and everything related with the old name just crashed with this error message
    Catchable fatal error: Object of class WP_Error could not be converted to string in D:\wamp\www\wordpress3\wp-includes\formatting.php on line 433

    To check the possible error, I reverted to the old name and it solved itself. So I guess, it got to do with the renaming of the taxonomy. It this a bug or it is just that we cannot rename like this?

    Thanks...
