I have encountered a strange issue on a site I am working on that has been active for a few years. If I edit or add a new Taxonomy term, then the Taxonomy term will no longer show up on the Taxonomy term overview page (i.e. /admin/structure/taxonomy/[vocabulary]. The term will also not show up as an option to select on a node with a corresponding term reference field.

However, if I make a view and set it to display all terms of a certain vocabulary, all the terms will show up normally. If I use Taxonomy manager module, I can successfully create the terms by adding new terms in bulk, but as soon as I edit their fields, they will disappear. I have searched far and wide, but have not encountered an similar problem and solution. Can anyone help? Thank you.

Hi @phandolin,

It works fine for me, as i tried to reproduce the same issue at Drupal 7.54 version but couldn't reproduce. Can you please elaborate your issue more for my better understanding?

Thanks!

I'm not sure how to elaborate on it as I haven't seen this on any Drupal site I've worked on, it seems to be an anomaly.

I ended up enabling Administrative Views and all the taxonomy showed up on the vocabulary pages. Then on my node's corresponding term reference field, I used hook_form_alter to insert the entire taxonomy into the drop down. It did not solve the root of the problem, but did fix the specific issue.
