Ignore Specified Meta

Hi, is there a way for WP-Sweep to ignore certain term IDs?

I have default terms like sedan, SUV, coupe and would like them to not be deleted even if they are empty.

Thanks,
Jason

I added a new filter https://github.com/lesterchan/wp-sweep/commit/40cdc8d03bae59fceaf94477ca4cc83dc9d1f950

Feel free to download the dev version https://github.com/lesterchan/wp-sweep/archive/master.zip and use it

~~I just installed the dev version and get a 404 when trying to access /wp-admin/wp-sweep/admin.php~~

Sorry, I just forgot to change the plugin folder name. All good now.

How do I specify the terms?

I can do it directly within the plugin by adding:
```
		if ( ! is_array( $parent_term_ids ) ) {
			$parent_term_ids = array();
		}
		$ignore_term_ids = array(
		'5344',);
		
		$excluded_termids = array_merge( $default_term_ids, $parent_term_ids, $ignore_term_ids );
		return apply_filters( 'wp_sweep_excluded_termids', $excluded_termids );
	}
```
I know this is a bad idea because it’ll be overwritten once the plugin is updated. How would I tap into this using my functions.php?

Thanks,
Jason

Erm you have to use the filter API? https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/add_filter/
```
add_filter( 'wp_sweep_excluded_termids', 'wp_sweep_excluded_termids' );
function wp_sweep_excluded_termids( $excluded_termids ) {
    return array_merge( $excluded_termids, [ '5344' ] );
}
```
