<p>FSM Backend Category Organizer allows you to group and organize the categories (or any other user-created hierarchical taxonomy) on the post editing page, making it easier to sort through them in environments where there is a large number of categories.</p>
<h4>The limitations of WordPress in assigning categories</h4>
<p>By default, the WordPress category assignment box shows the categories in a list format only. This method can cause usability problems in environments with a lot of categories, especially when the users must scroll down a lot to see all of them.</p>
<p>Additionally, it’s impossible to check at a glance all the categories that have already been assigned, due to the small dimensions of the box.</p>
<h4>The FSM Backend Category Organizer solution</h4>
<p>FSM Backend Category Organizer allows you to present the categories and another taxonomy items in a different and more organized way. Any main taxonomy item can become a tab that will display only their sub-items, separately from the rest. You can create as many item-tabs as you wish and order them however you want, or you can just create a list of all the first level categories in the current taxonomy (containing at least one child) by clicking the “Populate” button.</p>
<p>All assigned items can be viewed at a glance in a list format, regardless of which tab has been marked. They can also be deselected quickly from this list.</p>
<p>The plugin also allows you to show and hide the standard “All Categories” tab.</p>
<h4>Translations</h4>
<p>The plugin comes up with 3 complete translations:</p>
<ul>
<li>English (en)</li>
<li>Spanish (es_ES)</li>
<li>Catalan (ca)</li>
</ul>
<h4>Some tips</h4>
<p>You can move the new taxonomy assignment box to any position within the post editing page. We recommend to drag it to the main column, the widest, for a better fit.</p>
<h4>Coming soon</h4>
<ul>
<li>On the fly tab auto-generator.</li>
<li>Mix categories in any group, no matter their hierarchies.</li>
<li>Control which users can organize categories.</li>
<li>(Got more ideas? We are open to hear!)</li>
</ul>

<h4>Hello Theme Developers!</h4>
<p>Have you ever added a Featured Image to a post and thought to yourself, “I wish I could add more than one image this way”? Well, now you can. Featured Galleries mirrors the Featured Images functionality of WordPress. The only difference is that posts get an entire gallery rather than just a single image. These galleries behave almost exactly like Featured Images, and make use of  WordPress’s built in Media Manager. Users can select images, define the order, and save the gallery, all through a simple drag-n-drop interface.</p>
<p><strong>Note</strong>: This plugin DOES NOT HANDLE THE FRONTEND HTML CREATION. That is left for themes to handle, to allow for maximum flexibility. Featured Galleries just handles the backend/admin interface for creating featured galleries and storing them as metadata. You will need to integrate this into your theme, or use a theme with prebuilt integration.</p>
<h4>Quick Start Guide to Integrate Into Themes</h4>
<p><em>For more information, see <a href="https://github.com/Kelderic/featured-galleries/wiki" rel="nofollow ugc">GitHub Wiki</a></em>.</p>
<p>I’ve tried to make this as intuitive as possible. Themes can integrate Featured Galleries in the same way they integrate Featured Images. Inside any template file where the gallery should appear, the theme will call the <a href="https://github.com/Kelderic/featured-galleries/wiki/get_post_gallery_ids" rel="nofollow ugc"><code>get_post_gallery_ids()</code></a> function. As long as it is used inside the loop, the function doesn’t need any parameters. By default, it will return an array of image IDs.</p>
<h4>Example</h4>
<p>Set inside the Loop. This returns all images in the Featured Gallery, as an array, then loops through to display each using an HTML <code><img></code> tag.</p>
<pre><code>$galleryArray = get_post_gallery_ids(); 

foreach ( $galleryArray as $id ) {

    echo '<img src="' . wp_get_attachment_url( $id ) .'">';

}
</code></pre>
<p>You can also customize the returned value from the function to suit your needs. See the full <a href="https://github.com/Kelderic/featured-galleries/wiki/get_post_gallery_ids" rel="nofollow ugc">function documentation</a> page for details.</p>
<h4>Custom Post Types</h4>
<p>The plugin comes with a filter to easily add Featured Galleries to custom post types. See the <a href="https://github.com/Kelderic/featured-galleries/wiki/fg_post_types" rel="nofollow ugc"><code>fg_post_types</code></a> documentation page for details.</p>
<h4>Customizing the Media Manager</h4>
<p>The media manager can be customized in sevearl ways. See the <a href="https://github.com/Kelderic/featured-galleries/wiki/fg_show_sid℮bar" rel="nofollow ugc"><code>fg_show_sidebar</code></a> and <a href="https://github.com/Kelderic/featured-galleries/wiki/fg_use_legacy_selection" rel="nofollow ugc"><code>fg_use_legacy_selection</code></a> filter documentation pages for details.</p>
<h4>Want to Help?</h4>
<p>I’d love some help with internationalization. It was working at one point, but drivingralle did that code because I don’t really understand it, and I’m not sure it’s still working.</p>


Featured Galleries

So glad I've discovered this, there are so many bad sliders out there I was driven to make my own too. This plugin does all the heavy lifting for me.

Spot on
