  • I’m also interested in this… or is it possible to have a collection inside a ‘post’ so the post featured image works as a thumbnail for the collection?

    Currently we don’t have any internal functions that do this, something like this would best be done by a custom theme. We have created the Stock Photography theme to highlight Sell Media.

    Not to open old topics, but how would we go about creating the functionality shown in Stock Photography in our own themes? Namely having a top level page of links to collections. I’ve tried the [sell_media_list_all_collections] shortcode but it doesn’t seem to be working…

    You don’t need to use Shortcode for this. Collections have their own archive pages that are created automatically. You simply need to add a link to these Collection pages in your Menu (Appearance -> Menu). If Collections don’t show up there:
    1. Make sure you have items assigned to Collections.
    2. Toggle the Screen Options button (top right on Menu page in WP) to show Collections.

    That would require manually adding each new collection to the menu every time and also wiring a new menu into my theme. I was looking for a way to display the names and pictures of all Collections automatically and have those names/pictures act as links to their respective archive pages. The Stock Photography theme on your website has behavior like this, and I was just trying to get some advice on how to emulate it.

    I found a way just using wordpress’ terms functions to display the links as names, and it works well. Maybe some kind of option to do this in the plugin would be helpful?
