I apologize for the bad English (I write with an interpreter).

At the moment I'm working with the training site on your system. I can not understand if it's possible to do such a thing:

There is a form of adding material to the site. There is an arbitrary field (an example of a field value is 1). It is necessary to make sure that when the value of this field is selected, the categories available for selection are filtered.

I attach a screenshot, which I hope will more clearly explain my idea.

Hi Alex,

Thank you for contacting our support forum.

This actually is a bit possible because we can use a hook to manually set the terms based on what is selected.

This would mean you will need to write a custom hook and to check what was selected and then manually set the taxonomy terms by using the function below.

I hope this was able to put you on the right track.

Thanks,
Shane
