Is there a way to assign an icon to a category post as well as the posts original image that’s set in the featured images?
So if had a post about grapes I would have an image of some grapes in the thumbnail but I’d also have a grape icon from the grapes category attached to the preview post. This is an example of what I mean http://wordpress.thebebel.com/showcase/bloggaexport/
Thanks
As far as I can see from the link you mentioned, there are no icons for categories, only avatars for authors. Is that what you mean? If you do want category icons, take a look at some plugins in the WordPress.org directory. Here’s an example: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/category-icons/
You could do that in template. Have an array of
$category_icons = (category_id => url_to_icon,â¦)and then where you want to show the icon, you just use<img src="<?$category_icons[$cat_id]?>">where$cat_idwould be the current category ID.You can use a plugin such as this:
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/taxonomy-images/
These plugins work by adding a term meta table, then adding a meta key/value holding the ID of an attachment, the same way featured images work with posts, but for taxonomy terms
You could also set a background image with the auto-generated css class
category-slugin your stylesheet
