    Hi, Thank you for this plugin, really useful. Need an advice on my current project. I wanted to show/list subcategories of current category with image on category page.

    I’ve tried below code, but only listing subcategories which has common posts!

    <ul>
     <?php foreach (get_the_category() as $cat) : ?>
     <li>
     <a href="<?php echo get_category_link($cat->term_id); ?>"><img src="<?php echo z_taxonomy_image_url($cat->term_id); ?>" /></a>
     <a href="<?php echo get_category_link($cat->term_id); ?>"><?php echo $cat->cat_name; ?></a>
     </li>
     <?php endforeach; ?>
</ul>

    Could you please give me a code snippet on how to do this?

    Sorry for my late reply.

    Simply check the wordpress codex for more info about getting the sub categories of certain category.

    Also check the plugin docs for more examples of how to list categories with images, you will find a lot of useful stuff in the comments.

    No problem. I have solved this. Please find the code given below,

    <?php $this_category = get_category($cat); ?>   

<ul class="product_list">
	<?php
	$id = get_query_var('cat');
	$args = array(	'parent' => $id );
	foreach (get_categories($args) as $cat) : ?>

	<li>
		<a href="<?php echo get_category_link($cat->term_id); ?>"><img src="<?php echo z_taxonomy_image_url($cat->term_id); ?>" /></a>
		<a href="<?php echo get_category_link($cat->term_id); ?>"><?php echo $cat->cat_name; ?></a>
	</li>

	<?php endforeach; ?>
</ul>

    Thanks for your reply.

    Thanks for the solution, vijilov – I was trying to do the same thing!

    Hi, I see you guys found the solution for this.

    I looked around on this forum, and I installed 2 plugins for this issue, but issue is still not solved.

    I don’t have any knowledge from php. Is it not possible that this can being solved with just a plugin, install the plugin and problem is solved? Or can someone give me more information about how to do this without php knowledge?

    Thanks in advance !

    Sorry for the late reply. You don’t need to remove Li tag from there. You can use CSS style to display everything horizontally by adding float:left property. Try and let me know in case of any issue.
