function wep_add_product_cat_to_custom_post_type() {
	$args = array(
		'hierarchical'      => true
	);
    register_taxonomy( 'product_cat', 'slug_custom_post_type', $args );
}
add_action( 'init', 'wep_add_product_cat_to_custom_post_type' );

I am trying to:
With WooCommerce comes a default Product Category: 'product_cat' with Types Taxonomies its not recognized so i cant edit or assign this taxonomy to other custom post types. So i made this code to assign the default WooCommerce to a custom post type.

I visited this URL:
// https://codex.wordpress.org/Taxonomies
// https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/register_taxonomy

I expected to see:
Is there a better or easier solution to customize taxonomy's with Types?
// domain.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=wpcf-ctt

Instead, I got:

Update for other users:
register_taxonomy() adds or overwrites taxonomy
get_taxonomy() with this you keep original taxonomy arguments

function wep_add_product_cat_to_custom_post_type() {
    $args = get_taxonomy( 'product_cat' );
    register_taxonomy( 'product_cat', array( 'product', 'another_cpt_slug' ), $args );
}
add_action( 'init', 'wep_add_product_cat_to_custom_post_type' );

Hello,

Thank you for contacting our support forum.

Unfortunately Types wouldn't be able to edit the woocommerce product category as this is a specially made Taxonomy that doesn't follow the standard procedures.

Instead it is made specifically for woocommerce products so without some custom code this would be possible.

Such custom coding is out of the scope of our support forum.

Thanks,
Shane
