Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about F4 Media Taxonomies

The built-in taxonomy category can be enabled with this snippet. Just put it into your functions.php: add_action('init', function() { register_taxonomy_for_object_type('category', 'attachment'); });
The built-in taxonomy post_tag can be enabled with this snippet. Just put it into your functions.php: add_action('init', function() { register_taxonomy_for_object_type('post_tag', 'attachment'); });
There are two ways to enable custom taxonomies for attachments: New taxonomy: If the taxonomy does not exist yet and you want to create a new one, you have to set the object_type in the register_taxonomy() function to attachment (see WordPress codex). add_action('init', function() { register_taxonomy( 'media-category', 'attachment' ); }); Existing taxonomy: If the taxonomy is already registered, you can assign it with this snippet. Just put it into your functions.php and change media-category to your taxonomy: add_action('init', function() { register_taxonomy_for_object_type('media-category', 'attachment'); }); The filters do not appear in the media overlay For a better performance, we only include the scripts and files when they are needed. Some plugins can cause a problem with this functionality. For this case we offer a hook, which allows you to enable the filter for special conditions. If this hook returns true, the filter is enabled for the current site. add_filter('F4/MT/Core/has_filter', function() { return true; });
No. We simply use the taxonomies that are registered in the code. Maybe in the future, but we want to keep this plugin as lightweight and simple as possible.
Yes, absolutely!
