This plugin makes managing taxonomies so much easier. Importing and exporting categories, tags, and even custom taxonomies with a simple CSV saves me a lot of time. The interface is straightforward — no complex setup, just install and start using.

I recently used this plugin, and I have to say—it works perfectly! Importing and exporting CSV files was smooth and hassle-free. Everything worked right away without any extra setup, which saved me a lot of time. The plugin is simple, easy to use, and does exactly what it promises. I was able to manage my site data quickly and without confusion. Honestly, it’s one of the most useful plugins I’ve tried, and I highly recommend it to anyone who needs a straightforward solution for taxonomy CSV import/export.

Fixed: Broken singleton init() method that silently created a second unused instance.
Fixed: taxocsie_admin_notice_remove() parenthesis grouping — the third screen ID condition was outside the isset() guard, risking a PHP notice on screens without an ID.
Fixed: TAXOCSIE_VERSION constant was mismatched with the plugin header.
Removed: Facebook footer links from all admin pages.
Removed: Debug error_log() calls left in autoload.php and admin/preview.php.
