WP Media Categories

Everything about this plugin feels native to WordPress. Filtering your view within the Media Library works exactly how you would expect if you're familiar with filtering posts by category. I also appreciate that the terms are stored in the database in a way that is consistent with all other taxonomies. Great plugin with a singular purpose.



Simple, elegant solution for media management

As a proof of concept it does work, but user has type categories manually upon file upload and there is no category filtering in media insertion dialog, which kind'a would be the point of having categories.

When you need media "folders", like for images or photos, this is the plugin. Works out of the box.

Let's a developer add tax queries, as for post. Then very powerful.

Great for creating a simple media taxonomy

Works nicely
