Hi Vladimir,

i have readed the following article and i added the code in my theme. But it still not running.

Hi @polhf,

have you changed the taxonomy name in the snippet? Please post here your code.

add_filter( 'su/get_gallery_slides_query', function( $query, $source, $args ) {

	// Replace 'media_category' with your taxonomy name
	if ( 'media_category' === $source['tax'] ) {
		$query['post_mime_type'] = 'image/jpeg,image/gif,image/jpg,image/png';
		$query['post_type']      = 'attachment';
		$query['post_status']    = 'inherit';
	}

	return $query;

}, 10, 3 );

hi

in Setting>Media
Custom taxonomy slug : media_category

add_filter( 'su/get_gallery_slides_query', function( $query, $source, $args ) {

	if ( 'media_category' === $source['tax'] ) {
		$query['post_mime_type'] = 'image/jpeg,image/gif,image/jpg,image/png';
		$query['post_type']      = 'attachment';
		$query['post_status']    = 'inherit';
	}
	return $query;

}, 10, 3 );

Hi @polhf,

but your shortcode from the first post is using category as media taxonomy:

[su_image_carousel source="taxonomy: category/38"]

Try changing it to:

[su_image_carousel source="taxonomy: media_category/38"]

sorry i spelled it wrong

Ok, now let’s make sure you’re using the correct category ID. Open this link in your browser:

https://hoppelburg.de/wp-admin/term.php?taxonomy=media_category&tag_ID=69&post_type=attachment

Is that the category you want to display the images from, OR is there a blank page? Please take a screenshot.
