    Hi Scribu,

    Feature request/question: how to make your script fire an update event, after a field / post has been changed? Say, every time some author modifies any taxonomy field – respective event is sent to RSS tracking feed / via email, with updater’s name.
    — further suggestion: script is not fired instantly, but via CRON: it analyzes history of changes, and sends not single updates, but summary of updates for every post (if several taxonomy fields changes, so not to over-spam mailbox).

    It is required for me, because my people do not create/update posts, but only update the post/taxonomy fields (this is my flow of operational work). I cannot see what is happening on my website.

    Any solutions advised?

    PS related to previous topic we’ve discused earlier (http://wordpress.org/support/topic/multiple-taxonomy-select?replies=7): I’ve got quite an easy workaround.

    Since FEE uses the appropriate APIs for making changes, you can log them via a separate plugin that doesn’t even need to know about FEE.

    See the hooks found in the wp_set_object_terms() function.

    If a plugin doesn’t exist already and if you’re not familiar with plugin development, I suggest you hire someone (not me) to code it for you.

    Please post it there.

    The functionality I need is for only-now-not-forever, and does not require big-monster-solutions. Nothing industry-big. Only a temporary workaround.

    1) Yeah, I see that you develop very “properly”, therefore expect very “standard” solutions.
    2) Yes, you are right that I am not familiar with coding. Basic knowledge only.

    -> a hack of your code, a single call of specific event (which call? to put where?), would be enough.
    I would be VERY helpful for instructions…

    Please post it there.

    Problem: I need multiple choice of taxonomy items, with option to add new items, with ability to-click-not-to-input.
    Solution
    1) Near the list of the_terms related to specific taxonomy, create in html page code the simple list of items existing using wp_get_category_items (with special modification, to make them hierarchical).
    2) Each item is wrapped with

    • or <span> and gets a JS onclick event, updating the inputfield of this taxonomy with respective $category->name
      3) To make JS update proper inputfield ID, I had to delete from your code unique ID (fee-date.time), making it only ‘fee-input-field’ for every field. Still, works.
      Again, this is temporary solution, I need it now-not-forever.
      3) Delete not inplemented, yet not required. Delete manually by backspace button:)

    It’s not that easy and I really don’t have the time to walk you through it, especially the cron part.

    Try asking on http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/ (like I said, you don’t even need to mention FEE).

    Please post it there.

    Thanks, but I meant you post it on that thread. Also, some HTML seems to be missing. You can wrap code in backticks (`) or use the (code) button. Also, it would helpful if you posted a screenshot with your modification.
