• I have a lot of custom fields and custom taxonomies, when I change a single data I click on “save” but this operation can take many seconds or even a minute or more, because (I suppose) all the data of the post are re-saved. Is it possible to save just a single taxonomy/custom field change? maybe by JS code?

  • Hi @sacconi,

    WordPress’s default behavior is to save the entire post object, including all its metadata (custom fields) and associated taxonomies, when you click the “Update” or “Save Draft” button.

    While it’s technically possible to create custom JavaScript to save specific fields without a full post save, it’s not something WordPress supports out of the box. It would require a significant amount of custom development to hook into the appropriate WordPress APIs and handle the data submission and processing on the server side, potentially bypassing the standard save routines.

    Such a solution would be outside the scope of typical support provided in these forums, as it falls under custom development. If it’s essential to your workflow, working with a developer might be the best route.

    Hope that helps!
