When migrating from another system (i.e. Drupal), WordPress can require data that is currently serialized to be unserialized and stored in its own WordPress-specific tables/columns. This plugin can look for such data, and deserialize and store it, based on the plugin settings.
This plugin handles one (configurable) imported field at a time, so all imported, serialized data needs to be stored in that single field. Each key in that field can be mapped to any column, and stored in either <code>wp_postmeta</code> or <code>wp_posts</code>, as shown below:
<pre><code>`
</code></pre>
if ( $maps[$key][‘wp_table’] === ‘wp_postmeta’ && $value != ” && $value != NULL ) { 
 add_post_meta( $post_id, $maps[$key][‘wp_column’], $value, $maps[$key][‘unique’] ); 
} else if ( $maps[$key][‘wp_table’] === ‘wp_posts’ && $value != ” && $value != NULL ) { 
 $post = array( 
 ‘ID’ => $post_id, 
 $maps[$key][‘wp_column’] => $value 
 ); 
 wp_update_post( $post ); 
} 
 `
The <code>wp_schedule_event</code> method is used to deserialize the data and place it into its appropriate fields, and it can run at any configurable interval (you pick a number, and then a unit of time).

WP Term Images

Plugin works as advertised. Found a small bug and @jjj was kind enough to fix it. What more could you ask for?



Works Great!

Thanks!

Just tested with the latest version of WP.

Thank you

Excellent! Works like a charm. Very useful for building nice term pages.

Just what I need

It's simple and less intrusive than other plugins that do the same. It blends better with WordPress UI.

It doesn't show anything in the frontend if the correct code isn't added to the theme, something like this I guess:

<?php 
$taximg_id = get_queried_object()->term_id;
// image id is stored as term meta
$image_id = get_term_meta( $taximg_id, 'image', true );

// image data stored in array, second argument is which image size to retrieve
$image_data = wp_get_attachment_image_src( $image_id, 'full' );

// image url is the first item in the array (aka 0)
$image = $image_data[0];

if( $image ) {
	echo "<img src=" . $image . " class='term-image'>";
}

?>
