Allows you to merge terms, move terms between taxonomies, and set term parents, individually or in bulk. WPML is supported when changing taxonomies.
Please note this plugin requires at least PHP 7.1.
If you need to reorganize your tags and categories, this plugin will make it easier for you. It adds three new options to the Bulk Actions dropdown on term management pages:
It works with tags, categories and custom taxonomies.

Work on the WPML component was sponsored by the Rainforest Alliance.
Limited support is handled in the forum created for this purpose (see the support tab on wp.org).

Either use the WordPress Plugin Installer (Dashboard
Plugins Add New, then search for “term management tools”), or manually as follows:wp-term-management-tools
folder to your /wp-content/plugins/
directorywp-term-management-tools
folderNote for WordPress Multisite users:
/plugins/
directory (do not install in the /mu-plugins/
directory).Set Parent option. In this case, the term "New EN" will be set as a child of "Parent One EN"
Merge option. Here, the two selected terms will be merged into a new term named "Merged." In addition, because both source terms share the same parent term ("Parent One EN"), the new term will also have "Parent One EN" as its parent term.
Change Taxonomy option. Here, the "Parent One EN" category will be sent to the custom taxonomy "Hierarchical" (which I added for the sake of testing). A few other things to note here. First, the two child terms will also be moved and, because the target taxonomy is also hierarchical the parent-child relationships will be preserved. Second, if there are any WPML translations of these terms, they will also be moved and the translations maintained.
