#61863 closed enhancement (duplicate)

Add 'Trash' to categories page in admin area

Description

Add filtering of categories in the same way posts are i.e. All, Published, Draft, Trash. Mainly I'm asking for the Trash option. Currently, if you delete a category then it is gone with no chance of restoring. Adding a Trash will prevent, in some cases, copious amounts of work from accidental deletions.

Duplicate of #59804.

Welcome to Trac, @jjbbrr and thank you for the suggestion.

This will require a term status field in the database and a term status API similar to that of posts and comments. This could have more than just a trash status, to define term visibility in a broader scope.

There are already other tickets for this and an old article: https://make.wordpress.org/core/2016/10/04/proposal-status-api-for-taxonomy-terms/

Closing as duplicate, as it's best to keep discussion one place.
