Enhance Taxonomy Terms with Thumbnails
Taxonomy Thumbnail is a WordPress plugin designed for developers, enabling the attachment of thumbnails to taxonomy terms. This plugin provides a user-friendly interface for setting thumbnails during term creation or editing, and displays the current thumbnail in the terms list. It utilizes the modern media window introduced in WordPress 3.5, ensuring a seamless experience. The plugin also prioritizes accessibility, incorporating features like wp.a11y.speak() to enhance usability for all users.
The functionality is flexible, allowing thumbnails to be set via AJAX when JavaScript is enabled, eliminating the need for term updates. By default, the plugin supports all public taxonomies, but developers can filter which taxonomies are enabled for thumbnails. The plugin includes several template tags for easy integration, and it utilizes the term metas API for storing data in WordPress 4.4 and above, with options for earlier versions. Overall, Taxonomy Thumbnail enhances the WordPress experience by adding visual elements to taxonomy management.
