People would like to know if you have to force the user to mark at least one custom taxonomy in WordPress? Ex: In a post I have custom taxonomies, I would like to oblige the user when entering the post to mark at least one category.

This is a classic in WPSE: Force category choice before creating new post?

It is necessary to adapt the post_type , add the custom taxonomy in wp_dropdown_categories and use the wp_set_object_terms to update this taxonomy.

I have adapted using portfolio as Post Type and location as Custom Taxonomy. When we click Add new , a screen appears first asking you to select a category, selecting and sending the new post is created with the custom category selected. The consideration is that this is only necessary when creating a new post, if it is to control the selections of existing posts it is necessary to inject jQuery for this.

    $post_type = 'portfolio';
    if ( isset( $_REQUEST['post_type'] ) ) {
        $post_type = $_REQUEST['post_type'];
    }
    else
        return; // Se o post_type for 'post', o REQUEST vem vazio, precisa disto para não disparar nos posts

    // Only do this for posts
    if ( 'portfolio' != $post_type ) {
        return;

    if ( array_key_exists( 'category_id', $_REQUEST ) ) {
        add_action( 'wp_insert_post', 'wpse14403_wp_insert_post' );

    }

    // Show intermediate screen
