Description (last modified by SergeyBiryukov)

Since #21760 get_term_by() uses get_terms().

get_term_by() term query arguments are thus already filterable with the filter get_terms_args. However it's difficult to detect whether the arguments passed to the filter come from a call to get_term_by() or directly from a more generic call to get_terms().

I thus propose to add new filter specif to get_term_by().

Thanx @Chouby, I think this is a good idea.

One note, tho: I think the ticket mentioned in the description is incorrect, because it doesn't have anything to do with get_term_by() :-) Can you double-check and correct?

#2 @Chouby

Maybe the proposed name is not the best. But the filter I propose is in the function get_term_by(), just before it calls get_terms().

Just to be clear: the proposed filter name seems fine. What I meant was that #27160 is related to TinyMCE and not get_term_by().

That is, the description of this ticket starts:

Since #27160 get_term_by() uses get_terms().

and that is not the correct ticket number where that change happened.

Sorry I completely misunderstood your previous comment. Thanks @SergeyBiryukov :)
