[Plugin: Taxonomy Images] Add image via API

Hello and thank you!

This is not something that I plan on adding to the plugin, but it is definitely possible. All term/image association are stored under taxonomy_image_plugin in the options table. This is a flat array. The keys represent the term_taxonomy_id and the value represents the ID of an image. Feel free to man-handle this array as much as you like ??

Aha, great!
…and the image ID corresponds to the ID in the posts table. So to get the url of the image I execute:

SELECT  ID, guid
FROM  wp_posts
WHERE  ID =  '14536'
AND  post_type =  'attachment'

Ok, I will play around with this.

Thanks!

You can never trust the value of guid!

There should be no need to query the database directly to return posts. Please look into using the get_posts() function.

To return the relationships, you can use something like:

$associations = get_option( 'term_taxonomy_id' );

Ok, the following worked to get the image:

$images = get_option('taxonomy_image_plugin');
echo wp_get_attachment_image( $images[$tax_term_id], 'medium' );

Now I’m gonna figure out a way to update the image in a similar way…
