 > @benoitchantre Yes, termmeta is now part of core, but I'm not sure that
 we should reopen the ticket. What is the use case for allowing terms to be
 ordered? Is it something that most users, or even a sizable minority of
 users, will want?

 The plugin that uses term_order to allow users to manually set the term
 order ( https://wordpress.org/plugins/custom-taxonomy-order-
 ne/screenshots/ ) has 10,000+ active installs. So I'd say that while it's
 not a barn burner, there is clearly a use case. So what is the reason to
 not do this?

 Speaking of a use case, here you go: I have  CPT for tracking projects,
 and a CT for tracking team members. Some team members are jr, some are sr,
 and the senior ones should be listed first. Manual term order is the
 solution here.

 IMHO this needs to be re-opened.
