Categories Images – Zahlan's Blog

Categories Images is a WordPress plugin which allow you to add an image for each category (or term), it is so easy to user. This plugin will create a new text input that will had the image url of the category, in both forms when adding a new category or edit an existing one, you can put a url for the image or upload it bu click on the text input.

Installation:

Open your wordpress admin panel, then plugins menu > Add New and search for ‘Categories Images’.
Click to install.
Once installed, activate and it is functional.

Or you can install in manual:

Download the plugin from WordPress Plugins.
Extract it, then upload the extracted folder ‘categories-images’ to ‘/wp-content/plugins/’.
Go to your wordpress plugins menu, then activate it.

You are done! And the plugin is ready to use.

Usage and documentation:

after installing and activating the plugin, just use the following code:

Default usage:

use the following code in category or taxonomy template,put it in any <img /> tag :

<?php if (function_exists('z_taxonomy_image_url')) echo z_taxonomy_image_url(); ?>

1	<?php if (function_exists('z_taxonomy_image_url')) echo z_taxonomy_image_url(); ?>

or simply:

<?php if (function_exists('z_taxonomy_image')) z_taxonomy_image(); ?>

1	<?php if (function_exists('z_taxonomy_image')) z_taxonomy_image(); ?>

Difference between the two methods are as following:

z_taxonomy_image_url() return the taxonomy image url as a string so you can put it in any <img /> tag with support of the following parameters:
- $term_id, the category or taxonomy ID, default NULL
- $size, default ‘full’
- $return_placeholder, default FALSE
z_taxonomy_image() return category or taxonomy image as html with support of the following parameters:
- $term_id, the category or taxonomy ID, default NULL
- $size, image size (check here for more about WordPress image resizing), default ‘full’
- $attr, array of some html img tag attributes like: (default NULL) please check parameter $attr here
  - alt, default is the image file name
  - class, default is ‘attachment-$size’
  - height, default none
  - width, default none
  - title, default none
- $echo, to enable or disable printing out the html, default TRUE.

Using inside a loop:

use the following code in anywhere at your wordpress theme, here is an example:

If looping for categories:

<ul>
<?php foreach (get_categories() as $cat) : ?>
<li>
<img src="<?php echo z_taxonomy_image_url($cat->term_id); ?>" />
<a href="<?php echo get_category_link($cat->term_id); ?>"><?php echo $cat->cat_name; ?></a>
</li>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</ul>

<ul>

<?php foreach (get_categories() as $cat) : ?>

<li>

</li>

<?php endforeach; ?>

</ul>

<ul>
<?php foreach (get_categories() as $cat) : ?>
<li>
<?php z_taxonomy_image($cat->term_id); ?>
<a href="<?php echo get_category_link($cat->term_id); ?>"><?php echo $cat->cat_name; ?></a>
</li>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</ul>

<ul>

<?php foreach (get_categories() as $cat) : ?>

<li>

<?php z_taxonomy_image($cat->term_id); ?>

</li>

<?php endforeach; ?>

</ul>

If looping for taxonomies:

<ul>
<?php foreach (get_terms('your_taxonomy') as $cat) : ?>
<li>
<img src="<?php echo z_taxonomy_image_url($cat->term_id); ?>" />
<a href="<?php echo get_term_link($cat->slug, 'your_taxonomy'); ?>"><?php echo $cat->name; ?></a>
</li>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</ul>

<ul>

<?php foreach (get_terms('your_taxonomy') as $cat) : ?>

<li>

<a href="<?php echo get_term_link($cat->slug, 'your_taxonomy'); ?>"><?php echo $cat->name; ?></a>

</li>

<?php endforeach; ?>

</ul>

<ul>
<?php foreach (get_terms('your_taxonomy') as $cat) : ?>
<li>
<?php z_taxonomy_image($cat->term_id); ?>
<a href="<?php echo get_term_link($cat->slug, 'your_taxonomy'); ?>"><?php echo $cat->name; ?></a>
</li>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</ul>

<ul>

<?php foreach (get_terms('your_taxonomy') as $cat) : ?>

<li>

<?php z_taxonomy_image($cat->term_id); ?>

<a href="<?php echo get_term_link($cat->slug, 'your_taxonomy'); ?>"><?php echo $cat->name; ?></a>

</li>

<?php endforeach; ?>

</ul>

If your post had more than one category and you want to loop for all post categories use the following example:

<ul>
<?php foreach (get_the_category() as $cat) : ?>
<li>
<img src="<?php echo z_taxonomy_image_url($cat->term_id); ?>" />
<a href="<?php echo get_category_link($cat->term_id); ?>"><?php echo $cat->cat_name; ?></a>
</li>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</ul>

<ul>

<?php foreach (get_the_category() as $cat) : ?>

<li>

</li>

<?php endforeach; ?>

</ul>

<ul>
<?php foreach (get_the_category() as $cat) : ?>
<li>
<?php z_taxonomy_image($cat->term_id); ?>
<a href="<?php echo get_category_link($cat->term_id); ?>"><?php echo $cat->cat_name; ?></a>
</li>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</ul>

<ul>

<?php foreach (get_the_category() as $cat) : ?>

<li>

<?php z_taxonomy_image($cat->term_id); ?>

</li>

<?php endforeach; ?>

</ul>

And if your post had more than one taxonomy and you want to loop for all post taxonomies use the following example:

<ul>
<?php foreach (get_the_terms(get_the_ID(), 'your_taxonomy') as $cat) : ?>
<li>
<img src="<?php echo z_taxonomy_image_url($cat->term_id); ?>" />
<a href="<?php echo get_term_link($cat->term_id, 'your_taxonomy'); ?>"><?php echo $cat->name; ?></a>
</li>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</ul>

<ul>

<?php foreach (get_the_terms(get_the_ID(), 'your_taxonomy') as $cat) : ?>

<li>

<a href="<?php echo get_term_link($cat->term_id, 'your_taxonomy'); ?>"><?php echo $cat->name; ?></a>

</li>

<?php endforeach; ?>

</ul>

<ul>
<?php foreach (get_the_terms(get_the_ID(), 'your_taxonomy') as $cat) : ?>
<li>
<?php z_taxonomy_image($cat->term_id); ?>
<a href="<?php echo get_term_link($cat->term_id, 'your_taxonomy'); ?>"><?php echo $cat->name; ?></a>
</li>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</ul>

<ul>

<?php foreach (get_the_terms(get_the_ID(), 'your_taxonomy') as $cat) : ?>

<li>

<?php z_taxonomy_image($cat->term_id); ?>

<a href="<?php echo get_term_link($cat->term_id, 'your_taxonomy'); ?>"><?php echo $cat->name; ?></a>

</li>

<?php endforeach; ?>

</ul>

Using resizing feature:

To resize category image simply add the size as a second parameter, for example:
if in category or taxonomy template:

<img src="<?php echo z_taxonomy_image_url(NULL, 'thumbnail'); ?>" />

1	<img src="<?php echo z_taxonomy_image_url(NULL, 'thumbnail'); ?>" />

<?php z_taxonomy_image(NULL, 'thumbnail'); ?>

1	<?php z_taxonomy_image(NULL, 'thumbnail'); ?>

or if inside a loop:

<ul>
<?php foreach (get_the_terms(get_the_ID(), 'your_taxonomy') as $cat) : ?>
<li>
<img src="<?php echo z_taxonomy_image_url($cat->term_id, 'medium'); ?>" />
<a href="<?php echo get_term_link($cat->term_id, 'your_taxonomy'); ?>"><?php echo $cat->name; ?></a>
</li>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</ul>

<ul>

<?php foreach (get_the_terms(get_the_ID(), 'your_taxonomy') as $cat) : ?>

<li>

<img src="<?php echo z_taxonomy_image_url($cat->term_id, 'medium'); ?>" />

<a href="<?php echo get_term_link($cat->term_id, 'your_taxonomy'); ?>"><?php echo $cat->name; ?></a>

</li>

<?php endforeach; ?>

</ul>

you can choose to resize from these (thumbnail, medium, large, full) or any custom sizes, also you can use it as array with dimensions for example:

<img src="<?php echo z_taxonomy_image_url(NULL, array(300, 250)); ?>" />

1	<img src="<?php echo z_taxonomy_image_url(NULL, array(300, 250)); ?>" />

<?php z_taxonomy_image(NULL, array(300, 250)); ?>

1	<?php z_taxonomy_image(NULL, array(300, 250)); ?>

Please check WordPress codex here for more information about resizing.

To display image with support for alt, class, width and height, you can do as this example:

<?php
$attr = array(
'class' => 'category_image',
'alt' => 'image alt',
'height' => 200,
'width' => 300,
'title' => 'category title',
);
z_taxonomy_image(NULL, 'full', $attr); ?>

<?php

$attr = array(

'class' => 'category_image',

'alt' => 'image alt',

'height' => 200,

'width' => 300,

'title' => 'category title',

);

z_taxonomy_image(NULL, 'full', $attr); ?>

if there were any bugs or you faced any problems please reply to this post, if I had more time I will update this plugin and add more features.

update 26-07-2012: I had noticed that there is some people talking about my plugin, here is a link to the post 🙂

http://wpshock.com/wordpress-category-images-taxonomy-images-plugin/

another one here also:

http://www.williamsgraphics.co.uk/featured-images-categories-wordpress/

Update 25-01-2013: A great update had been made to this plugin, and hope you liked it, Thank so much to Joe Tse http://tkjune.com

Update 14-06-2013: I had updated the plugin with some new features like using WordPress new media uploader and new sub menu (Categories Images) in Settings menu allowing you to exclude any taxonomies from the plugin, this for fixing and avoiding any conflicts with another plugins like WooCommerce plugin, hope you all like the last update.

Update 20-12-2013: I had updated the plugin with new features like resizing images please check the docs above for more help about using this new feature, and also adding support for Spanish language. Thanks so much to Maria Ramos and to Rahil Wazir for their help.

How do you use it exactly? An example would be nice.

If I want to loop through a list of categories and display the image, name, and link for each?

Hi, I have a doubt: I uploaded the image for a category, however, after that, I make click on “Insert in post” and nothing is added to “Image” field on the category edition screen. How do I have to upload an image within admin area?

  I can’t guess what is the error in your case, but any way you can copy the uploaded image link and paste it into the image field, click on image field, copy the uploaded image link from your media library, close the upload box or press escape on the keyboard, then paste the copied link into image field.

    Hi, I’m having this problem as well. When I click on the image field, it does not allow for pasting anything and simply launches the media uploader, and when I choose an image or a url or upload an image from my computer, then hit the button that says use the image, the box closes but nothing appears in the image field. There is no way I can get an image URL to appear in that field. I’m on the latest version of WordPress. Any ideas?

      may be something wrong with your javascript, most the users had reported it works great with the last ver of wordpress, but anyway you can copy the image url manually and put it in image field, it will work fine

        Hi!
        I had the same problem just in case in media uploader I had the “link URL” field empty (before insert into post/category).
        
        If it’s not empty (the img url is visible in Link URL field), the plugin works perfectly.

Hi! great plugin!
I’m trying to use your function to get the category image in single.php, I mean, I want to get the category image uploaded also inside a single post… but I can’t get it!

Also in archive.php I’m using

<img src="" alt="" /> "other thing"

It’s works great, but seems like the conditional it’snt working… when I haven’t image uploaded it’s showing a broken link image…

Could you help me? Thanks a lot!!!

  Thanks so much, hope your problem had been solved, if you want to list categories with images anywhere, you can use the loop method in documentation, and this will be useful if the post had more than 1 category.

    Hello Zahlan. I have installed the plugin and added an image to the Category “Agricultural Engineering” on / in the Business Directory plugin. http://everythingagricultural.com/business-direcotry/
    
    As you can view the thumb nail image 80×80 is not visible. I tested your plugin again on a newly added Category but the image is still not visible.
    
    I have seen the comment about the “loop” but I do not know where I should place the code and I am worried about updates breaking the code after I input the images.

Thanks for the awesome plugin!

I have a quick question:

I am currently using the “looping for categories” code you provided (with a few minor changes). But I was wondering how would you go about excluding a category.

Here’s a link to the test site that I’m working on. Note the little square above the True(ish) thumbnail, that’s the category I want to hide
http://www.test.campallaccess.com/site1/category/messages/

Thanks.

  Thanks, you can easily pass any arguments you want to get_categories() function, for example (as in your case) you want to exclude one or more categories:
  $args = array( ‘exclude’ => ‘1,2’ );
  as you noticed I had excluded category id 1 and category id 2, and then pass this array to get_categories() function like this:
  get_categories($args)
  btw, and you can use more arguments as explained in the wordpress codex here: http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_categories
  
  hope this would help 🙂

  Ok simply after downloading and activating the plugin, just use one of the 4 examples above like this way:
  
  – use the 1st if you want to get the category icon url in (category/taxonomy) template.
  – use the 2nd or 3rd examples if you want to get a list of all (categories/taxonomies) in any template.
  – use the 4th example in single template in case your post have more than one category and you want to list them.
  hope this would help.

    Thanks. I was thinking on it last night and I think the easiest would be to expand the function that pulls the image like this…
    z_taxonomy_image_url($cat->term_id, 'thumbnail')
    As it is now, I’m hard coding the image size of the icon and using 3 different sizes for different displays.

  currently you can change the category/taxonomy image size before inserting it to the image field while adding or editing any category/taxnonomy (I mean before pressing insert into post button). I had made it this way to let you even use outside link of the image, not just hosted images on your website.
  But ok, I will think of changing this to make it more flexible about getting the image url.
  Thanks for sharing your thoughts 🙂

Hiya, could you show me how I can show just the child categories of a particular category. I basically have a main category lets say “Drinks” and under them have “Wines” “Fizzy” “Beer” etc and I just want to show the categories and images with those child categories.

  Simply use the last example in the documentation and it will work fine if you use the default wordpress loop.
  In case you are using another loop (like using get_posts and foreach) pass the post_id to the function get_the_category and it will work fine.

I have two taxonomies that use some terms with the same name. now when I call z_taxonomy_image_url() with $term->term_id I get the same image for both terms called “hogan” which are in two different taxonomies. I tried changing the slug of one term but it still uses the last defined image on either of the terms.

any help greatly appreciated!

  Thanks so much.
  I think using a different slugs for each one will solve this problem, but let me check again to make sure there are no bugs here, wait for my reply.

Can the image field be displayed within a view, using the Views plugin? I’m not able to select the image field as a custom field, nor does the PHP code work. Any advice would help.

Thanks for the plugin!

  Thanks, wordpress categories does not have custom fields, only posts or pages that supports custom fields if that what you asked for, I’m using wordpress options to save each category or taxonomy image in my plugin.

Hi Zahlan,

Thanks for making the best categories images plugin available, I’ve got it working great with my standard posts, however I’m having trouble using it with my Custom Post Type. I want to list all the categories for my type ‘product’ with their respective pictures, and I can’t seem to do so with any of the examples above. I’m a bit of a WordPress noob and not used to get_categories, which doesn’t allow me to use post_type to name my custom post type – could you explain/post the code for how to do this?

Many thanks

  Thanks so much, yes exactly you can’t use get_categories while you need categories of a custom post, so you can use the 3rd example in the documentation and don’t forget to change ‘your_taxonomy’ with the taxonomy name that you register with your custom post.

This plugin looks great. One question: How can I load the image in the header.php (outside loop) for the category “page”, I think it is called category archive page. Can you provide a php example ? Thanks!

Reply
1. Zahlan says:
  
  September 1, 2012 at 2:26 pm
  
  you can use is_category() function in the header to check if you are in category template or not, like this example:
  < ?php if (is_category()) : if (function_exists('z_taxonomy_image_url')) echo z_taxonomy_image_url(); endif; ?>
  ?>

Hey Mr Zahlan,

first things first: I love the plug-in. Awesome job.

But I have a problem. By now, I have a category for “featured” posts to put certain posts in a special position in the blog. i don’t want these categories to appear as category images so I just gave them a 1x1px transparent image which, of course, kills my layout (in a way).

Is there a way to exclude certain categories from showing up as images?
Not giving them an image at all is not an option since some browsers still show the (X) “image not found”-thingy.

Thanks for your help!
Joe

  Simply you can assign the result to a variable and check if this variable is empty or not, check this code:
  < ?php $cat_image = z_taxonomy_image_url($cat->term_id);
  if (!empty($cat_image)) :
  ?>
  // your category image
  < ?php endif; ?>

    ok I’m sorry I think I got you wrong, ok let us simply use the 2nd example in for loop method in the documentation, all you have to do is change get_terms(‘your_taxonomy’) to get_terms(‘your_taxonomy’, array(‘parent’ => 0))
    This code means that you want to loop for parent taxonomies only (looping for the top level taxonomies), I’m sure this will fix your problem.

I have got it to work by hardcoding foreach (get_terms('productcategory', array('parent' => 6)) as $cat) : and it will show me all subcategories, but I need to code it so that it picks up what category page it’s on dynamically.

  Thanks for enhancing my plugin 🙂 but let me explain something, the reason I use the full image url to not force the user to host the image at his blog, he can use any url from anywhere, also I’m using it to let him easily can use any re-sizing image tools like timthumb.
  I had also check the code, it will only work in case you have a taxonomy called ‘package_cat’ because you had disabled my foreach 🙂 so by default the plugin after your modifications won’t work, I think you should test it on a new wordpress installation. Thanks again 🙂

  Great, then use the last example above, put it anywhere at your single.php tempalte.
  And if you where using taxonomies (not categories) replace the function get_the_category(); with the function get_the_terms( $id, $taxonomy ); where $id is the post_id and $taxonomy is your taxonomy. I will update the documentation and add another example for that, Thanks.

Hi – Nicely done plugin. I was using it fine and then I changed the folder structure so that all images are stored in the same folder (not organized by date) and this seems to have broken it. Unfortunately I am have to use that folder structure. Is there a way around this? Cheers,

  Unfortunately if you change the upload folder structure won’t display images because the image full path is stored as the image filed value, so you have to maintain the upload folder structure or you have to change all categories images to the new structure

Hi Zahlan,

First of all. Thanks for the simple but great plugin. I’ve got just one advice. If you’d change line 29 in categories-images.php form “wp_enqueue_script(‘thickbox’);” to “wp_enqueue_script(‘thickbox’); wp_enqueue_script(‘media-upload’);” the “Choose Image” popup will resize itself to fit the screen.

Hello Zahlan,

Love the plugin but I can’t get the images to display. I created an image for each category, uploaded and placed the url in each category. The thumbnail in the categories page is populated but the post widgets (home page)do not display the category image. I wanted the category image to be displayed whenever a single post did not have a featured image. What am I missing?

There is a support item on the wordpress site http://wordpress.org/support/topic/specify-which-taxonomies-to-use-with?replies=4
which looks like an enhancement request.
However, because the taxonomies cannot currently be specified this plugin conflicts with any other plugin or code that uses taxonomies and images. The WooCommerce eshop plugin is a prime example of this.

Hello,

First of all I gotta say what an amazing and wonderful plugin you developed here. Thank you so much! However the issue I’ve run into now is that it seems taxonomy images aren’t working for IE6 users. I know that most people are no longer using it, however my client still has a significant number of those users and he can’t drop them.

Is there any possibility of making some small modifications to the code so that IE6 users can also view the images? IE7 works fine it seems.

Thank You and a great plugin once again!

        I disabled all CSS and unnecessary HTML elements and the problem still persists. The images no matter what won’t show up. This is really problematic in that the client really wants IE7 users to be able to view the site. Is there no other way for you to try and test this?

Hello everybody. Thank you Zahlan for such a useful plugin! I use this categories-images plugin on all of my WordPress projects.

Just wanted to share this note with people using this plugin and the WooCommerce plugin together. Because WooCommerce uses the same button id names “update_image_button” and “remove_image_button”, adding product category images to WooCommerce categories breaks, and neither plugin works for these product categories (taxonomy).

The simple fix for me was to rename these 2 buttons in your plugin to something else, like “update_img_button” and “remove_img_button” so that the jQuery code works and does not conflict with WooCommerce Product Categories. Of course I could update the WooCommerce plugin, but since this plugin is so much lighter and easier to manage, I chose to update this plugin instead.

Perhaps in the future, this plugin could rename these 2 button ids/names so that it works with WooCommerce automatically. Of course this is up to the plugin author, Zahlan.

Thanks again! — Marty McGee

    This is a great plugin. It is really simple to use and lightweight.
    
    I was also having some issues with Woocommerce since it has it’s own built in taxonomy image control for product_cats. I found a way to turn off the category image for product cats only by removing the actions and filters for category images for that taxonomy only. This is what I used in my theme functions:
    
    // remove the other category image plugin by Zahlan when in the admin for woocommerce
    add_action(‘admin_init’, ‘undo_z_init’, 999);
    function undo_z_init() {
    $z_taxonomies = array(‘product_cat’,’product_class’); // add any taxonomies you want to omit for category_images plugin
    if (is_array($z_taxonomies)) {
    foreach ($z_taxonomies as $z_taxonomy ) {
    remove_action($z_taxonomy.’_add_form_fields’, ‘z_add_texonomy_field’);
    remove_action($z_taxonomy.’_edit_form_fields’, ‘z_edit_texonomy_field’);
    remove_filter( ‘manage_edit-‘ . $z_taxonomy . ‘_columns’, ‘z_taxonomy_columns’ );
    remove_filter( ‘manage_’ . $z_taxonomy . ‘_custom_column’, ‘z_taxonomy_column’, 10, 3 );
    }

Hello, Zahlan. Firstly, I must thank you for this plugin of yours. It was truly what I was looking for! I successfully posted a list with the images, titles and descriptions on a page so my visitors have an idea of what I blog about.

Unfortunately, there is something I seem unable to do and I could use your help – please note this is not directly related to your plugin, meaning its functioning, so you are free to neglect me any help on the following: I would like to have an image of the proper category appearing next to the post title. Saturday, when I started my blog, everything seemed fine> I used your plugin on both the index and single files and styled it a bit and the category image appeared successfully. However, today when I was doing the list for all categories, I made a new testing post just to see how it worked: the list is working fine but as you should expect, now the icons for the two categories I have are appearing on both my posts.

Is there any chance to make ONLY the correct category image appear within a post? I know that it is possible to show the category images on posts but I am perfectly ignorant as to do it with your plugin, or even if that-s ‘workable’.

The address in question is http://blog.wizard-wheezes.org, not the main website listed on this comment form.

Thank you again for sharing this plugin with us and thank you also for your much awaited reply (or of any other user currently reading this message).

  Yes, you can do that by using the ‘order’ parameter, for example:

  Please check the WordPress Codex for more parameter and examples.

  You are using the plugin function in a custom loop, so all you have to do is to pass the category_id to the function, for example: z_taxonomy_image_url($cat_id) as $cat_id is the category_id of the post in your loop.

Hello I just installed the plugin and was happy it worked I was able to upload my pic to category (I want to have a feature image at top – I only have one category for posts for my site with no subcategories) the thumb shows in the edit mode but there is no picture in the actual category. I then added your fist code at the top here and I now get just the text path to the image and its not a link just the text. NOTE: I have the gonzo theme and for categories it has a line divider with a label title saying “your browsing x category” I did not want this so I deleted the code in the category template successfully here is the top portion of the file as well I will mark where I deleted code and what that code was. Also please let me know exactly what to input and where as I do not know this stuff well thanks!

ADDED YOUR CODE HERE AS WELL AS ON DIFFERENT LINES SAME OUTCOME

REMOVED THIS “name);?>” TO HERE

<?php // Determine whether to use a preset blog style or echo content (with shortcodes)

$category_blog_style = get_tax_meta($category_ID,'omc_blog_style');

I love this plugin, its so easy to use. However, I need a little help.

Im creating two custom post types that do virtually the same thing, list all taxonomies (categories) in a custom post type, by thumbnail – with a link to the single custom post.

Has anyone figured this out for two custom post types with two sets of taxonomies?

Hi Zahlan,

great useful plugin!

I think I’ve found a bug. When you use Editor role you can’t upload images, the path is not copied in the Upload text box after clicking Insert Into Post on the Media popup. Using a custom taxonomy and post type.

With an Admin role it works as expected. Made my client Admin for now, but not ideal.

I am building a woocommerce site. I would like to use a category image like a banner on top of all the products.

I am uploading images to the product categories but the images dont show up on the site. What should I do??

I have attached the temporary URL of the site. I would like a different image under each category on the main product menu.

Hello,
To begin with, sorry for the mistakes, I’m French !

In order to not assign a picture to each tag, I modified the code with an “if / else” php option. But it doesn’t work in the else’s case.
The code is below. For you, what’s the problem ?
Thank you.

<?php
if (function_exists('z_taxonomy_image_url')) {
echo "term_id).”>”;
} else {
echo ”;
}
?>

What if I have categories and if click on cat then display sub-cat. This can be done with wp_list_categories, but then images cannot
be displayed.
P.S. Nice job

Dear all,

I am using categories to filter blogs.
I have ulploaded the plugin and associated each category with a picture.
The purpose was to have this picture associated in the headbanner for each articles associated with this category.
What else do I need to do in order for this to work?
Many thanks!

Hi,

I installed this plugin to change the header-image with the associated category. This really works fine if the category is selected and all all related posts are listed in the content. But when I select a single post from the list, the category image disapears. Even if a post image is uploaded to the selected post it won’t be shown anymore (this works if the plugin is deactivated).
Any possibility to fix it?

regards Michael

I am having an issue with categories that do not have an image specified displaying the first product title of the sub-category as an alt attribute.

I am using Woocommerce. I am not sure what I am doing wrong or what the workaround might be. I am using the code for a single category, and when an image is specified it displays correctly.

Any help would be appreciated!

This is a really great plugin. Thanks so much for taking the time to create and maintain it. I do have one question, which I hope you have an answer for: How would I display the taxonomy image of a tag outside of the loop?

For example, in my tag archive template, the top section needs to display the current tag’s image and description, just like it would in the category template. The loop doesn’t begin until after the tag image and description. Here’s what I have in my category archive template:

<img src="" />

How would I make this work for tags? I’ve tried all of the examples above, but it doesn’t seem to work without using it within the loop.

Thanks for any help that you can offer.

A useful plugin. Thank you.

Like others, I had the need for using different image sizes with the plugin, so I have made some modifications to your original code to store the attachment id (as is done with post thumbnails) instead.

This then allows you to use inbuilt WordPress functions to get the image at the required size.

Let me if you’d like me to send you my changes.

Hi there,
I have a custom built Library for my podcast and your plugin looked like the perfect addition.
However, I can’t get the images to show?
http://crafting-a-life.com/craftlit/?page_id=243

I couldn’t use the whole code you put above as most of it was already used in the custom code, but I did find the “right” place to put the img src tag… and it’s showing placeholder images but not the real images.

The images ARE loaded, however, when I look at the Categories listing in the dashboard.

Thank you so much for the plugin and your help!

This comment will help others just like the trick helped me.

I was struggling with wp_list_categories(), i wanted to show child category image with a list of child category names, so this plugin helped me with to set category image for all category and sub category but i was unable to show image in the front end. I solved this by editing the file category-template.php in wp-includes which is a core file and engine to wp_list_categories.

I changed

function start_el( &$output, $category, $depth = 0, $args = array(), $id = 0 ) {
extract($args);

$cat_name = esc_attr( $category->name );
$cat_name = apply_filters( ‘list_cats’, $cat_name, $category );
$link =
‘term_id) .'” /> –<<<—- added the plugin line ——–

description) )
$link .= ‘title=”‘ . esc_attr( sprintf(__( ‘View all posts filed under %s’ ), $cat_name) ) . ‘”‘;
else
$link .= ‘title=”‘ . esc_attr( strip_tags( apply_filters( ‘category_description’, $category->description, $category ) ) ) . ‘”‘;
$link .= ‘>’;
$link .= $cat_name . ‘‘;

.
.
.
.

So i got:

2 wheel

honda

yamaha

According to the plugin documentation and it worked for me… Thanks a lot 😀

But, I have one question…how to use this plugin with wp_list_categories function? I’m using this function to list categories hierarchically. I want insert image inside the ( li ) tag, before link (not in link).
My idea is in category page display only subcategories of current categry and it’s subcategories in the same ( li ) tag (hierarchically)…that’s why I need the wp_list_categories function.
But I dont know how to customize wp_list_categories output, to insert in ( li ) tags a image.

After some digging i found out that it works even better with the plugin Post Tags and Categories for Pages

I wanted to have different pictures like small headers in my category title section on each page. So i used Categories for Pages to add your code with a small adjustment <img src="term_id); ?>" /> So that each page has his own picture. I really liked that my idea worked out. Im not much of a programmer though each day im getting better more and more.

I’ve tried a few combinations, including this: http://pastebin.com/gLvtgiQr but I haven’t figured it out yet.
Can anyone help me change this to only show parent categories?
Many thanks!!

For the tag.php page you can use

<a href="term_id, 'post_tag'); ?>"><img class="tag-img" src="term_id); ?>" />

Obviously, it is not that simple to operate a small company because a tremendous amount
of work is needed. The biggest advantages of outsourcing bookkeeping services for businesses is that they don’t have to worry
about hiring trained and efficient accountants and further create
an in-house bookkeeping department. If your Micro Small Business Australia is ever audited
by the ATO you will need to produce these Tax
Invoices to verify the GST Credits you have claimed back in your BAS Statements.

Double-entry bookkeeping requires recording of each transaction twice using debits and
credits which serves as a type of error protection system.

All I want to do is print the title of each taxonomy along with the link and the feature image. I just can’t seem to figure out how to do this. If you look at the code below you should get an idea of what I am trying to do.

If looping for taxonomies:

<img src="term_id); ?>” />
<a href="slug, ‘your_taxonomy’); ?>”>name; ?>

Thanks in advance,

Trisha says:

March 12, 2015 at 2:27 am

Hi Zahlan – I could use some help with customizing your template code to work with a specific template loop.

I have a Custom Post Type and Custom Taxonomy registered for it. The taxonomy is hierarchical but only so that it appears and is used/checked as a ‘category’ not as a Tag, but there are only ‘parent’ level categories – no child categories. Each custom post has a (custom) category checked, and each custom category has an image assigned to it.

However the template page where I want to display the appropriate category image next to each Post is using a custom query that I cannot modify (it’s provided by a plugin and the query is in the plugin’s functions somewhere) and using the “foreach” just is not working. The query is done behind the scenes, but the template uses the “while have posts” loop.

If I put the “foreach” statement above the “while”, it displays the same category image for each post (the image assigned to the first category ID) and if I put the “foreach” statement below the “while” then it displays an image next to each post that is NOT the appropriate assigned image for the category of the post, interestingly it displays the images in order of their ID number (so for the first post in the list it displays the image assigned to the first category ID, even though that is not the category ID of the post, for the second post it displays the category image assigned to the second category ID, again even though that is not the category of the Post….and so on).

Here is my code:
have_posts() ) { ?> Found found_posts; ?> Results
have_posts()) { $query->the_post(); ?> <img src="term_id); ?>" width="135" height="135" class="alignleft" /> (the rest of my stuff here)

Can you help me with this?

Hi, I believe this is a feature request as I can’t get it to work otherwise.

On the next release, could you insert the following 5 lines of code between lines 180 & 181? Then if the current page isn’t a straight-forward category or taxonomy archive it will instead work with the categories associated with that page. It’d be particularly useful when themeing pages depending on their category.

} else { $page_object = get_queried_object(); $page_id = get_queried_object_id(); $categories = get_the_category($page_id); $term_id = $categories[0]->cat_ID;

Many thanks 🙂

Hi,
I have main category and sub categories. So I want to display sub category images under main category. If I browse to main category page, I want to display sub category images in that page.. I tried your taxonomy wise example. But it’s not working for me. If there are any example for displaying images using term_id?

Please help me..
Thanks

I think this is how my theme gets category images. How can I make it grab the category images from your plugin?

name;

// Banner Sub Title
$banner_sub_title = $current_term->description;
?>

<div class="page-head" style="background-repeat: no-repeat;background-position: center top;background-image: url('’); background-size: cover; “>

Hi. It’s a nice plugin. Just notice that the image is not being resized in the backend. A user uploaded a 18MB picture and it’s being loaded like so in the backend. And that’s takes a lot of time.

So, when displaying the image in the backend you should use the “medium” size.

Regards.

Hello,
I’ve tried everything I know and every combination and pasting ”

The foreach solution only lists tags and its images, which is not what I’m trying to accomplish. What I’m trying to do is to upload an image to a post_tag (e.g., website.com/tag/car) and display only the image upload to the tag “car” when someone visits the website.com/tag/car link.

I’m just trying to implement a background image for tags (post_tag).

Is there any way to do this?
Thanks,

Thanks for a really useful plugin, it works great once I tried a few things ;).

For others information, if it helps: I set up a custom post function (child_cat_hub) in child functions.php to run this, and then call it from the template. It may not be the best code, but it works. See below for the basics of what I did.

function child_cat_hub() {
//this function calls the url generated by Taxonomy images plugin!
//assign the course child categories you wish to display, using ID as in below
foreach (get_categories(‘include=1,2,3,4’) as $cat) :
echo (”);
echo (‘term_id); // this calls the url link to the category archive page
echo (‘”>’);
echo $cat->cat_name; //this is the category name which prints out.
if (function_exists(‘z_taxonomy_image_url’)); // this checks if there is an image url to call
echo (‘term_id, ‘wp-add-image-size-name-here); //this calls the image url, and the WP add_image_size name if you add it like this
echo (‘” />’);
echo(‘‘);
echo (”);
endforeach;
} //end of child_cat_hub

Remember you need to assign images to the categories otherwise this won’t work!

Thanks again Zahlan for great instrcutions and code examples.

I’m not sure if I have to insert in the category or taxonomy template this: or if the installation and activation is all I need. After saying that:

1) If installation and activation is all I need- why does my pictures are not showing in the Category? I can assign a picture, but one is assign and save when I got to the webpage is not there?

2) If after the installation and activation I need to insert the code mention above- how do I get to the category template and where should be inserted?

When I add the Category Image Plugin it said that is compatible with my WordPress Template which is KaciMuih.

I really want to have a different header in my category page. Any help will be great…

I use Toolset and am trying to allow users to select the name of a custom taxonomy in a dropdown, but display the icon on the page. I have 8 options and 3 icons (more than one type share a single icon). The NAME is used for searches and post creation, but I want icon to show instead. I have tried using Toolsets CONDITIONAL OUTPUT but could not seem to get that to work, so I was looking for another option. I uploaded icons to taxonomy and have tried inserting code in Content Template, functions.php, single.php, View, but am unable to get it to display.

    there are several WP core functions for categories like
    get_cat_ID();
    get_categories();
    $cat_obj = $wp_query->get_queried_object();
    $wp_query->query_vars[‘cat’];
    
    depends if you are on a category page or on a single page or/and in a loop…
    best to check the output with var_dump(…) and then see which values in the object/array matches.
    from there you can work backwards, checking the current category ID -> check of there is an image (!empty….) and retrieve the category slug from matching the ID with one of the WP cat functions
    same with the question above: check the current cat ID and is this as the reference to exclude the image

BUG:
I guess there is a bug using the ‘thumbnail’ url. When having same images for different categories it does not deliver the 150×150.jpg image (for example if 150×150 is defined for WP standard thumbnail) Instead it just shows the url to the standard image.

Hi,

I use your plugin to set the background image for the category-list page. Works like a charm.

But I also want to set the category image as background for the “single” detail post, when clicking on “read more” at the category list. But this doen’t work out, as the “” doesn’t produce the link to the category image when used in the “single.php” header.

In the Category Images – Settings the “post_tag” is allowed.

So where do I make a mistake here?

Thx for your help and best greetz, Hannes

I was getting a little confused by this until I realised that ‘your_taxonomy’ in the examples above refers to the type of taxonomy as found here https://codex.wordpress.org/Taxonomies

So if you wanted to reference your post tags you would replace ‘your_taxonomy’ with ‘post_tag’.

I’m building a website for a magazine and uses a custom taxonomy to categorize all their issues. On one page I want to display all the front pages of their issues. The font pages shall be clickable and lead to a list of all the articles from that specific issue.

I now have two problems:
• When I use your code above to display all the front pages of the issues it even displays the parent categories. I don’t want to do that. Is there a way to hide them from the list?
• I then want to display the issues in chronological order with the latest issue on the top and the oldest at the bottom, but nog WordPress sorts them in alphabetical order. Is there a way to sort the issues differently?

I use the Virtue theme, I had to create a child theme to overload and modify the archive.php file by adding your code: <img style = "padding-bottom: 10px;" Src = "”>

I’m extremely new to all this but I love the sleek look of having category images on your home screen. I have downloaded and installed the plugin “Categories Images” and I have uploaded images to each category but I’m so stuck on what I need to do next in order to actually make these images appear on my home page.

Also, they have ruled the market due to their anatomical constructions of shoes that make the
shoes anti-stress with special shock absorption system.
Media doesn’t really know how to handle it
and this was never more clear when we saw the Vogue Italia
cover for June 2011. The Fashion Industry is totally focused on how people look and larger people do not figure
on mainstream fashion’s radar.

The documentation provided by your plugin is very thorough, thank you! I feel that almost any level developer should be able to pick up on what they need to know to get this working in their environment. In my case, I have multiple images attached to categories/taxonomies, and I used the documentation here to determine how to loop in the secondary image (custom field). Thank you very much!

Hi,

First of all, thank you so much for this plugin 🙂 It has been very helpful!

That said, I’ve got a question for you:

I’m trying to display the category image inside a div, but want the div to show only if the category image is set… any idea how I should go about this?

Thanks in advance!

I’m trying to change the images for each of my categories, but now when I go to “Categories Images” under Settings, all I’m seeing is “Please select the taxonomies you want to exclude it from Categories Images plugin”. I can no longer see the option to upload new images. What’s going on?

Also want to apper the text “category name” and “category explanaition” on the image.

Hi, thanks great plugin.

I have an idea to more performance.

on line 194.

before:
if(!empty($taxonomy_image_url)) {

after:
if(!empty($taxonomy_image_url) && $size != ‘full’) {

reason:
– z_get_attachment_id_by_url function spawn slow query.

This does not work !
<img src="” />

Neither does this!

$attr = array(
‘class’ => ‘category_image’,
‘alt’ => ‘image alt’,
‘height’ => 200,
‘width’ => 300,
‘title’ => ‘category title’,
);
z_taxonomy_image(NULL, ‘full’, $attr); ?>

At first I thought it was a great plugin, However, totally useless without alt tags and image cropping!!

Signings of Andrew Miller and Aroldis Chapman (plus the trade for Chapman) demonstrate this focus on the bullpen.
White Sox closer David Robertson would enter in the ninth and shut down all six batters he faced on just 24 pitches to earn the win.
There are not a lot of two-way players, that’s why the Hornets need every player to bring their unique skills in every game.

Surprisingly, the Falcons had no one listed on Saturday’s injury report.
Unfortunately, they gave up 17 straight points during a second half run, losing 38-31 after scoring a meaningless touchdown.

Hi There, I’m really hoping you can help me in any small way.

Ii’ve been trying for 3 hours now to integrate category images, or taxonomy images into my Modern Tribe Event Calendar – and i’m really struggling.

The most luck I’ve had in not breaking anything is as follows:

‘.get_the_title().’

This should be returning an image – but it’s returning nothing except my alt text.

Is there any easier way that you can think of for me to add a custom category image to my events??

Thanks so much for any insight you can give me

Hi There,

The plugin is great and has been working well, however, I am having a problem with the plugin lately. I have managed to upload category header images and all of a sudden the new categories I have created don’t seem to be displaying the images allocated to them.

Can anyone assist in solving this issue?

Hi, Im using the loop code below but only want to display subcategories on the page (not the current category or any sibling categories, just subcategories). When I use the code below it is showing all categories within our setup. Any ideas on what to modify please to only show subcategories?

e.g. with the categorisation below, if you view the page for category A you should only see links to subcat A1 and A2.

-category A
— subcat A1
— subcat A2
-category B
— subcat B1
— subcat B2

Many thanks

<a href="term_id); ?>”>cat_name; ?>

Thank you for this helpful plugin. I am not a programmer and if I may ask for a minor help please?

The plugin works with main Category archive pages (without inserting any additional code from the examples that you have provided above). But it does not show the featured image in Jetpack’s Portfolio Archive page or Jetpack’s Project Type Archive page.

I tried inserting the code above (example 3) into functions.php but doing so broke the site. Any help is appreciated.

Kind regards
