 * I added the code:
 *     ```
       add_filter( 'wp_listings_default_status_terms', 'custom_default_status_terms' );
       function custom_default_status_terms() {
       	$status_terms = array();
       	return $status_terms;
       ```
   
 * to my theme’s functions.php, but it does nothing. Something changed in the latest
   plugin version?

 * Nothing has changed in that regard. The default terms that were already added,
   must be deleted first. Adding the filter will prevent them from being replaced
   after deletion.

 * It just works while I’m in the Status section (they are not added again instantly).
   The moment I go to somewhere else and come back, the default status are there
   again. No matter how many times I delete them.
