Custom taxonomy

[tblobaum]

How do i add a custom taxonomy to a post.

For example, my post has one to many tags, one to many categories, and one publisher. The custom taxonomy publisher is a clone of the category type.

Hi @tblobaum,

post_excerpt: This is a post excerpt
featured_image: _images/post-image.jpg
taxonomy:
    category:
        - category-slug-1
        - category-slug-2
    post_tag:
        - tag-1
        - tag-2

Nunc sodales massa enim, nec consectetur orci tempus ac.
