Hi @Supervision
Believe you’ll need to use the WordPress Category ID or Tag ID, instead of the friendly name.

Cheers @Troy Tessalone , my hero of today!
That worked like a charm for my categories …
BUT – what about my tags that are new, and therefore no IDs exist?
Besides that, I have 3574 tags to date on my blog, and every post is adding some more …
While I could match all existing tags to IDs in an extra table, it would be plain amazing if the bridge to wordpress allows something easier ...
Just wanted to follow up here as spotted that there’s a feature request open for the ability to search for tags in WordPress which would also allow for a new tag to be created if an existing one wasn’t found.
I’ve added @Supervision’s vote for that feature request. While I don’t have an ETA on when that will be added we’ll be sure to get in touch by email as soon as it is. :)
