I found Piklist when I wanted to display a taxonomy as a checkbox group. I had already created the taxonomy the traditional way in the functions file. To get the checkbox group, I added the Piklist meta-box code. Except for having the tradition tags meta box and the Piklist checkbox group, all was good. Adding meta_box_cb => false took care of that.

I’m doing another site and want to use Piklist to create some taxonomies without having to create them in the functions file. My problem is, I don’t know how to populate the terms. The meta-box says “Terms will appear when they are added to this taxonomy.” but where/how do I add them? I tried adding ‘supports => tags’ but that didn’t add a meta-box. Ideally, I’d like to specify the terms for the taxonomy so no one can add any terms. Great plugin! TIA for the help..
