Thanks for posting this. I’m the developer of the Media-Tags plugin. I just tried on a somewhat sterile WP 3.0.4 install with only the Media-Tags plugin activated. I created a post category ‘Agriculture’ and Media-Tag term ‘Agriculture’. Then I created a post which was assigned to the post category. Then uploaded an image which was assigned to the Media-Tag.

From here I can change the Category and does not effect the Media-Tag. Conversely I can change the Media-Tag and not effect the post category.

I’m not sure what else to ask except what other plugins are you running or have run on your site. There are some plugins for example the File Gallery plugin which creates a similar Taxonomy ‘media_tags’ instead of my ‘media-tags’. That plugin also creates a ‘Media Tags’ nav under Media.

One other thought in case you really need to use the Assign popup. In the Media-Tags Settings you can turn off the Bulk admin option for the Media Library. This seems to allow the Library Assign popup to work.

Yeah, I can confirm this is not working. And can confirm your statement this is something involving Media-Tags since when I disable the plugin the search does seem to work. In my first reply when I was searching under Pages it does return a listing. But that list is wrong since I only have the default About page.

Will run more development test and provide an update.

Thanks for brining this up to my attention.

Hmm. Well since it works for me in WP 3.1 RC3 there might be some differences in WP 3.0.2. I’ll check this.

The attachment of media item to Posts or Pages is not a function of Media-Tags. This is something in WordPress.

What Media-Tags does is allow you to ‘tag’ media items just like you would tag a Post item.

On my development system running WordPress 3.1 RC3 and latest version of Media-Tags I can upload a media item into the Media Library. Then click the ‘Attach’ link within the Media > Library. I see the popup titled ‘Find Posts or Pages’. I enter just ‘a’ into the search input field. Then select the ‘Pages’ radio button. Then click ‘Search’. I receive a list of Pages in my system.

I click the radio button beside the row item in the list. Then click the ‘Select’ in the lower right of the popup. The popup closes and the Media Library listing refreshes. Now the media item is associated with that selected page.

@withinreach Just updated the code in the www.ads-software.com repo. Look for 1.3 of the Pages-Children plugin update coming to your system in a few minutes. This should solve your issue.

Ah Crap!

Yeah looks like the cookie logic has a hole in it not allowing you to view the top-level pages. Should have a fix this morning. If if you want just downgrade to the previous version. Thanks for reporting this.

@aalemann I’ve personally tested the Simply Exclude plugin up to WP 3.0.4. This was a fresh install with the default language and only the SE plugin activated. No issues can be found.

In your case the plugin does not support internationalization but still should function properly just in English text.

Curious if you moved on to something else or are still interested in trying to figure out how to make this work.

@rebelminion I’m the author of the Simply Exclude plugin. Can you advise what version of WordPress you installed the plugin on? Also what other plugins do you have running? Was this WordPress MU or single?

I’ve not had reports from any other used during the lifetime of the plugin that it effected the WP Category management logic or the category selection logic on the post admin page.

Well thanks you!

Steve,

Thanks for using my plugin. The caption is not include by default on purpose. Many people who use the plugin display groups of thumbnails in a grid. By including the caption below the images the grid would break.

You can easily add your own formatting to the image items. This does require some PHP knowledge and not something you can turn on via a settings option. Basically, you need to override the default callback function. This callback function is used when you use Media-tags via the shortcodes call [mediatags]. See the Media-Tags documentation for details on the shortcode use.

As part of the shortcode parameters look for the item ‘display_item_callback’. This parameter lets you specify your own function to be called for each image.

Now look at the files in the Media-Tags plugin folder. Look for the file named ‘mediatags_shortcodes.php’. Open this file in an editor. Toward the bottom of this file is a function ‘mediatags_item_callback_with_caption’ which is an example of including the caption as part of the image display.

You should copy this entire function to your ow theme folder and rename it to something unique. Then adjust the code to your liking.

jdantzer thanks for the fix suggestions. I have a few other changes from other users I hope to have incorporated into the next patch.

Should see the Media-Tags 3.0.1 version patched to remove this warning in the WP repo soon.

Sorry.

Ignore this. Thanks.

Hmm. Well it might very well still be a bug. I’ll work on a quick patch. Thanks for bringing this to my attention.
