From the readme

Viget Post Type Taxonomy Sync Keeps a post type and a taxonomy in sync automatically: publish a post and a matching term is created (and kept up to date); create or edit a term and the matching post follows along. Handy when a taxonomy needs to double as a lightweight, linkable "profile" for a post — e.g. syncing a product post type to a product-line taxonomy so other content can be tagged with a product without duplicating its data. Features - Define any number of post type ↔ taxonomy mappings from Settings → Post/Tax Sync. - Automatically creates, updates, and deletes the paired term/post when either side is saved or deleted. - Syncs hierarchy: when both the post type and taxonomy are hierarchical, parent/child relationships are mirrored too. - A manual "Sync" action per mapping backfills missing terms/posts and removes orphaned ones. - Hides the auto-managed taxonomy's term-management UI (submenu, "Add New Term" controls, block editor panel) so editors don't edit synced terms directly. - Excludes a post's own synced term from its taxonomy picker, so a post can't be tagged with itself. - A small set of filters for customizing behavior without forking, and a read-only REST API
