Fix: Update post-publish panel to use taxonomy label instead of hardcoded "Tags" #70410

shrivastavanolo · 2025-06-13T09:16:22Z

What?

Updates the MaybeTagsPanel component in the post-publish panel to use the dynamic taxonomy label for the post_tag taxonomy instead of hardcoded strings like "Tags".

Why?

Previously, the post-publish panel used hardcoded "Tags" strings in its UI, even if the taxonomy_labels_post_tag filter was used to rename the taxonomy (e.g., to "Keywords"). This led to inconsistencies between the main editor sidebar (which showed the correct custom label) and the pre-publish panel (which did not).

This PR resolves that by fetching the labels.name from the core data store via useSelect and using it in all strings via sprintf().

How?

Introduced a useSelect call to get the name label of the post_tag taxonomy.
Replaced all hardcoded “Tags” strings with sprintf() calls that dynamically insert the taxonomy label.

Testing Instructions

Add something like the following to a plugin or your themes functions.php file.

add_filter(
	'taxonomy_labels_post_tag',
	function( object $labels ): object {
		$singular_name = 'Keyword';
		$plural_name   = 'Keywords';
		return (object) [
			'name'                  => $plural_name,
			'singular_name'         => $singular_name,
			'menu_name'             => $plural_name,
			'all_items'             => "All {$plural_name}",
			'new_item_name'         => "New {$singular_name} Name",
			'add_new_item'          => "Add New {$singular_name}",
			'edit_item'             => "Edit {$singular_name}",
			'update_item'           => "Update {$singular_name}",
			'view_item'             => "View {$singular_name}",
			'add_or_remove_items'   => "Add or remove {$plural_name}",
			'search_items'          => "Search {$plural_name}",
			'not_found'             => "No {$plural_name} found",
			'no_terms'              => "No {$plural_name}",
			'items_list'            => "{$plural_name} list",
			'items_list_navigation' => "{$plural_name} list navigation",
		];
	}
);

Create a new post using Gutenberg.
See that "tags" are changed to "keywords" in the sidebar.
Don't add any tags/keywords before clicking on publish (and make sure to have the pre publish checks enabled). See that it says "Add Keywords" and "Keywords help users and search engines..." instead of "Add tags" etc. now

Works as advertised.

Thanks for the PR!

I think we should respect the add_new_item field instead of using the taxonomy name itself.

Example:

const Test = () => {
	const taxonomyLabels = useSelect( ( select ) => {
		const taxonomy = select( coreStore ).getTaxonomy( 'post_tag' );
		return taxonomy?.labels;
	}, [] );
	return taxonomyLabels?.add_new_item ?? __( 'Add tag' );
};

@t-hamano thanks for the review! Yeah, that makes sense. I changed the code to use add_new_items like so -

Default tag labels:

Modified tag labels ( add_new_item -> 'Add New Keyword' ):

Do you think it'll be better to convert panelBodyTitle to sentence case/title case before displaying or just to respect the case?

@shrivastavanolo

Do you think it'll be better to convert "panelBodyTitle" to sentence case/title case before displaying or just to respect the case?

I don't recommend controlling the character case programmatically because it won't work properly in non-English locales.

Additionally, I don't need to use add_new_item in the description - we'll need to use the name property on the description to keep the original text, i.e. Tags help... instead of Add tag to help....

LGTM!
