No Term Mapping on Post Settings

[eugenek]

It seems that there is a missing Term Mapping in Form Settings / Data / Populate Using Action like there is in Actions / Post Management.
Due to this, when I try to use WS Forms to edit an earlier published post, using your Populate a Form With Post Data instructions, I cannot retrieve the custom category of a custom post type. This makes this particular function unusable 🙁

Could you please look into this?

Thank you.

THIS IS AN UPDATED POST:

It seems that there is a missing Term Mapping option in Form Settings / Data / Populate Using Action, like there is in Actions / Post Management options panel.

Surprisingly, there is a Tag Mapping option in Form Settings / Data / Populate Using Action options panel, which is absent in Actions / Post Management options panel.

So, there is an obvious mistake in the code design.

Due to this, when I try to use WS Forms to edit an earlier published post, using your Populate a Form With Post Data instructions, I cannot retrieve the custom category of a custom post type. This makes this particular function unusable 🙁

Could you please look into this?

Hi again.

I believe I sorted my problem by selecting and mapping all three columns to return for the field responsible for taxonomy. Namely: ID, Name and Slug.
Maybe a separate tutorial on this could be of great help for anyone who would face the same problem.

Thank you!
