AWESOME PLUGIN!!!!
Works like a dream with one click! I had a custom taxonomy (created with ACF Pro) with about 70 items on one site and needed to copy all of them over to a second site. This plugin literally allowed me to do that in less than 1 minute. Awesome, awesome plugin—best one like it in the WP world right now. Huge thanks to Md.Rakib Hossen for creating it and making it available. I hope this plugin takes off and gets 100k installations!

Exactly What I Needed!
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.
