Does what it says, it simply worked, and perfectly. Even untested with current WP version. This deserves better than a few three year old reviews. Thank you!

Brilliant, Simple and Easy

You can spend a lot of time and money looking for the right plugin to do the job you want. Look no further, this is the simplest and most effective plugin and its free! I am using it with ListinPro and helps massively in copying categories to tags, making the business directory very very searchable.

Very helpfull!!!

Works as intended. Used to move custom taxonomy terms from old "Simple Taxonomy"-taxonomies to new "Custom Post Type UI"-taxonomies. Hierarchichal taxonomies child terms become top-level terms in the new taxonomy. Thanks !!!
