Post type: attachment working correctly in Chrome only

Hi @intelektual,
I’m seeing 4 posts in both chrome and firefox.
Might be an issue because you are logged into WP Admin in chrome?

With attachments you need to pass in the parent post id using the custom_args parameter.

Hope this helps!

Hello, @dcooney
sorry, still no go. Good remark about the login ??

Edit:
But – I do not understand the way the Attachments work. Should I create a post with standard gallery and then copy your shortcode (and replace the parent post ID with the ID of the gallery post) and paste it into other page? This did not work.

First of all I would like to take advantage of automation – I have several images in Media Library with a category name “galerie” and I would like to be able to show via ALM plugin only those images. And this option is not covered with the shortcode you provided.

Thanks VERY much again, sorry for the inconvenience,
Tom

OK, I ALMOST got it ??

Copied your repeater, copied and modified the shortcode, created a post with images attached, pasted the shortcode to a different page and now I have all the images attached in the special post shown in the page with the shortcode.

But I need to filter and show only images with a certain image category. So I added the shortcode parameters ” taxonomy=”media-category” taxonomy_terms=”galerie” taxonomy_operator=”IN” ” and nothing shows up.

Any ideas on that, please?
Thanks again

Is media-category the taxonomy for the media library?

Should be, I guess

Just wondering whether this topic has any sense anymore: is there any possibility to avoid “the middleman” parent post and load files directly from the Media Library without the need to attach image into that post?
Thanks again

Yea, the category isn’t working because its not a gallery cat, it’s a post category.

I’d likely suggest using Advanced Custom Fields gallery field and then the ALM ACF extension.

Like this -> https://connekthq.com/plugins/ajax-load-more/examples/advanced-custom-fields/gallery/

Ok, understood.
Thanks very much for quick responses!
All the best and thanks for great plugin.

Hi @dcooney,

I like the way your plugin works.
It’s very flexible and developer friendly.

I thought it was the only solution that would fit my needs.

I “tag” some images when I upload them to my site and then I need to be able to retrieve only those images that are tagged with a particular word.

It works perfectly on Chrome on my desktop, but it doesn’t show any images on Firefox or on mobile ( Iphone and Galaxy )

Would there be any chance of solving this issue ??

Thank you very much for your support and for your great plugin.

Hi @miguelangeltorresfp,
This is likely because you are logged into the WP Admin in Chrome?

With attachments you need to make sure you add the post parent ID as seen in the example here.

I don’t think you can actually load attachments without this post parent parameter.

@dcooney
Solved the problem with The Grid plugin without the necessity for parent post.

@intelektual Are you using it with ALM? Or just standalone? Cheers!

@dcooney I use both plugins – for posts I use ALM, but for this particular case with attachments I use The Grid standalone – https://www.stedrazrna.eu. The Grid case is the section “Galerie”, the rest is ALM

Yes @dcooney, you’re right, I tested it without being logged and it doesn’t load any images.

There are other plugins like “The grid plugin” or “Visual Composer” that let you load images filtering them by custom taxonomies, but I don’t know any one that let you change the taxonomy term dynamically.

@miguelangeltorresfp,
Right, because ALM using Wp_Query which you cannot use to query media library items without a post parent ID.

This is a tough one…
