Additional Filters to get_terms

[sc0ttkclark]

Currently in 3.1 (trunk) there is a general lack filters running on get_terms to enable advanced filtering and other functionality.

See my attached patch that offers up similar functionality to WP_Query::query

Initial Patch including the new filters

Just wanted to check in and see if there was anything further needed from me to get this into 3.1?

Refreshed patch, also adjusted final returns (cached / non-cached) to use best-practice coding as per @scribu's suggestion

(In [16056]) Add terms_clauses filter. Props sc0ttkclark for initial patch. See #15020

I haven't included the 'pre_get_terms' filter because I'm thinking you might want to also modify the taxonomies array.

A solution would be to put $taxonomies inside $args, pass it to the filter and then overwrite the $taxonomy variable.

[sc0ttkclark]

Taxonomies inside args sounds good.

[scribu]

Or call it 'get_terms_args' instead.

[sc0ttkclark]

I'm good either way, though I'd prefer some ability to intercept $args

(In [16059]) Introduce get_terms_args filter. Fixes #15020
