* Hello. Thanks for your plugin, but I have a question. Can you tell me how to
display show_admin_column on edit.php?post_type page, after creating taxonomies?

* [@wwebbymaster](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wwebbymaster/) ,
* You need to ensure that on the Visibility tab has the `Display a column on admin
lists ?` value set to True for each taxonomy required.

* To my previous post: on the screenshot All items are active but “Display a column
on admin lists” is not displayed. Any other ideas on how to fix this?

* I have been away for some days, so sorry for a delay in replying.
* There is a capability to choose the ordering of the columns on the admin screen.
It is the sixth option under the Taxonomies tab. There could be an issue there.
* Please select that option; and it will give tabs for all post types involved
in the taxonomies. Click on the appropriate post type. You will see a list of
taxonomies that will be the order of display. Change the order of the taxonomies
and then click the save button. You can move the order to back as it was; the
important thing was you had to move something to activate the save button.
* Then look at the `edit.php?post_type` screen to see if resolved.

* Thank you very much! I understand everything and thank you for any opportunity
to help me! I can’t find the “sixth option”, I just don’t understand where it
is))
* But now my taxonomy columns are not displayed ((
* 
* Perhaps this is a shortcoming of my post category. In standard posts, the columns
are present and displayed. Could you tell me how I can display them in my post
category? Maybe there is a code that needs to be added to the functions.php file?
* Maybe I didn’t set everything up correctly? ((
* Please tell me.

* Sorry for confusion. I am referring to the Menu on the left side of the Admin
page where you can create or modify the Taxonomy definitions, or add another,
etc.
* When you click on the item called Taxonomies, it opens a sub-menu with `All Taxonomies`,`
Add Taxonomy`, …and one called `Taxonomy List Order`. When you click on that
option, it will give you a tabbed list of all post types that have `show_admin_column`
set to true (if there is more than one). and for each one all of its allowed
taxonomies.
* It allows you to change the order of the admin columns for any post type by dragging
the taxonomy names to their required position.
* You should see all of the taxonomies assigned to each post type there. Please
check that you see all of the taxonomies there. (Note. If there is only one taxonomy
for any post type, then there is no display for that post type.)
* As I said, make a change by dragging a taxonomy name to another position. and
save it.
* Hope this is of use,

* Here’s how it looks for me now (screenshot). The first tab is the default WP
posts. The second tab is my taxonomies. I swapped them around and saved them,
but the columns still don’t show anything. What should I do here?

* Screenshots didn’t come out well.
* Please choose one of your taxonomies that does not appear (ideally one on a standard
WP type – posts or pages) and, from the All Taxonomies tab, click the Export
PHP button and share the download file (copy/paste the text file) with me here.
I’ll try to install it on my own machine and try to see what is happening.

* Sorry. The screenshots didn’t come out – until I pressed submit – and then they
displayed.
* Do you have a definition of your post_type `employees` that you can share? Please
do the export on `ourteacher-jobtitle`
* Thanks

* [@wwebbymaster](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wwebbymaster/),
* Thank you for sending through this file. I have loaded it and no issues, but
it did make me think of a possible problem of timing. Since you are using a custom
post type it might be that the taxonomy is being defined before the custom post
tyoe with the result that the taxonomy is not actually being linked to it.
* Would it be possible to change one line of the plugin please?
* Line 53 of the file `/includes/class-simpletaxonomyrefreshed-client.php` is
* ```wp-block-code
add_action( 'init', array( __CLASS__, 'init' ), 1 );
```
* Would it be possible to change it to
* ```wp-block-code
add_action( 'init', array( __CLASS__, 'init' ), 99 );
```
* In this way, we can be reasonably certain that the ourteacher post type is created
before the taxonomy is (and so it will be properly linked).
* Thanks for your continued help,

* Thank you very much for your attention! I changed the value in line 53 of this
file, but nothing changed. The column is still not added ((

* Thank you for trying it. There is a problem to be fixed, but clearly this is
not affecting you.
* You can output the detailed values being used by the wordpress table function
with this code that you can add to your `functions.php` file:
* ```wp-block-code
add_filter( "manage_taxonomies_for_ourteacher_columns", 'output_taxonomy', 999, 2 );add_filter( "manage_ourteacher_posts_columns", 'output_taxonomy', 999, 1 );function output_taxonomy( $taxonomies, $post_type="ourteacher" ) {echo '' . implode( ', ', array_keys( $taxonomies ) ) .'
';echo '' . implode( ', ', array_values( $taxonomies ) ) .'
';return $taxonomies;}
```
* It puts some output on the ourteacher custom post page somewhere (for my test
in the help dropdown, but just before the `
