FM Tax to JSON is an admin-only WordPress plugin for exporting registered taxonomy terms as downloadable, pretty-printed JSON.

The plugin adds Settings > FM Tax to JSON in wp-admin. Administrators can choose any registered taxonomy, including custom and non-public taxonomies, then download the current term structure as a JSON file. Hierarchical taxonomies are exported as nested trees, while non-hierarchical taxonomies are exported as flat term lists.

Features

  • Admin-only taxonomy JSON exporter.
  • Clean React/TSX admin interface styled with Tailwind CSS 4.
  • Dropdown of all registered WordPress taxonomies.
  • Supports built-in, custom, public, private, hierarchical, and flat taxonomies.
  • Includes empty terms in exports.
  • Pretty-printed JSON output.
  • Direct download with success and error messages.
  • No export files are written to uploads or public storage.

Requirements

  • WordPress 6.0 or newer.
  • PHP 7.4 or newer.
  • Node.js and npm only for rebuilding the admin assets.
