Categories Images

I had tested them all, and I can confirm that this plugin is the best in its category. I use it throughout my project, the z_taxonomy() function has become my favorite ;-) Thank you, Muhammad, for continuing to maintain it 🙏.

Tested and used on WordPress 6.0.2, perfect

The plugin saves image link into the Options table. Every saved term will add a row to the site's Options table, which may slow down the site if there are many term images. Also, the option does not get deleted after you remove a term image, it is the option's value that gets cleared out. The option only gets deleted if you delete the term. To me, this looks unprofessional.

The plugin adds an option from the main menu to a settings page that literally has only one setting and will only be used once. This menu item should be a "Settings" submenu. Having this option in the main menu is unjustified and simply clutters up the menu. Unfortunately for this reason, I chose not to use this plugin and look for alternatives.

Although it works, it requires you to add code to header.php for the Facebook preview to show it:

<?php
if (function_exists('z_taxonomy_image_url'))
echo '<meta property="og:image" content="' . z_taxonomy_image_url() . '" />';	
?>

It would be a very nice addition to have the plugin do this for you.

Finally I was able to set OG images for all my categories.

Thank you! 🙏

keep it updated ;-)

If you want to have photos on all your categories, this is a great little plugin. If you want some of your categories without photos though, instead of a blank space you get a broken image on the page, which isn't ideal, hence only 4 stars.

Thank you
