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

FAKTOR VIER

<p><a href="https://www.f4dev.ch" rel="nofollow ugc">F4 Media Taxonomies</a> provides the ability to filter the media library by categories, tags and/or custom taxonomies.<br />
You can use the built-in taxonomies (category or post_tag) or any custom taxonomy.</p>
<p>If a taxonomy is enabled for attachments, you can assign as many of their terms to an attachment as you need.<br />
You can assign them directly in the media library or in every media-selector overlay.<br />
There is also a nifty bulk function in the media library, which allows you to assign a single term to multiple attachments at once.</p>
<p>Attachments can then be filtered by these terms. The filters are available in the media library and in every media-selector overlay.</p>
<p>Different than other similar plugins, <strong>F4 Media Taxonomies is 100% free!</strong></p>
<h4>Usage</h4>
<p>See FAQ for a guide how to enable categories, tags and custom taxonomies.</p>

F4 Media Taxonomies

I deeply appreciate this plugin! I had registered a taxonomy for media and couldn't utilize it without spending HOURS and possibly days to figure this out. Thank you so much for making this filterable from anywhere!!!! 

This ROCKS!

thank you for building that functionality in a small and efficient plugin, without all those "fancy" stuff that all the others in that field offer. great for developers :)

so simple, so great

A simple plugin that works nicely. It’s a good alternative (maybe better) to custom directories for media files in WP.

Just installed this plugin on one of my sites. Does everything I expected and the source code also looks clean and lean! 5 Stars, thank you Faktor 4!!

Perfect, Clean Solution


Good clean solution to tagging uploaded files.


Add filters and bulk actions for attachment categories, tags and custom taxonomies.
