I haven’t tried the examples yet, but those articles appear to solve just what I’m trying to accomplish. I will ask additional questions next week if the material in those other topics doesn’t help.

I appreciate the support, all the effort you have obviously put into this plugin, and offering it for free.

Enjoy your weekend!

That did the trick.. or part of the trick.
The PDFs are now displaying, which is a huge help.

I would like to display the filenames in a list with an icon, such as
?? Document of Immense Importantance.pdf
?? Secrets of the Universe.pdf
?? Unimaginable Intelligence for Dummies.pdf

Also, is it possible to link to another page which will be affected by a link/form data on another page?

_________________________          ________________________
| page 'intro'          |          |  results page         |
| link to category 'b'  |   ===>   |                       |
|                       |          | list of cat 'b' items |
|_______________________|          |_______________________|

Is there a “getting started” guide or the like available? While I am 100% certain your software could make WordPress infinitely more versatile, I feel as if I’m reading a dictionary to learn a sail a boat.

Thank you!

Thank you for for quick response! I am still having issues, however.

When I use the code directly from the “MLA Term List Examples”, I have a blank gallery regardless of the category item count in the drop-down.

<form id="mla-text-form" action="." method="post" class="row">
<strong>Att. Categories</strong>
[mla_term_list taxonomy=attachment_category mla_output=dropdown mla_option_value="{+slug+}" show_count=true pad_counts=false ]
 
<input id="text-form-submit" name="text_form_submit" type="submit" value="Search" />
</form>
 
<h3>Gallery</h3>
[mla_gallery]
attachment_category="{+template:({+request:tax_input.attachment_category+}|no-term-selected)+}"
posts_per_page=3 mla_output="paginate_links,prev_next"
mla_link_href='{+new_url+}?mla_paginate_current={+new_page+}&tax_input[attachment_category]="{+query:attachment_category,text+}"'
[/mla_gallery]
 
[mla_gallery attachment_category="{+template:({+request:tax_input.attachment_category+}|no-term-selected)+}" posts_per_page=3 mla_caption="{+title+} : {+description+}" mla_nolink_text="<br>Select a term to display the gallery.<br>"] 

If I use another example which isn’t filtered, it will display items;
[mla_gallery post_parent=all post_mime_type=application/pdf size=icon link=file]

I am using WordPress 4.8.2
