   Hi there! Your plugin is a great addition to my site. I have been trying to tweak the plugin to suit my needs, but unfortunately I need some help on this.

   I am currently using shortcodes to place the terms under taxonomy "Movie Titles" on a single page. See here: http://www.filmsteak.com/latest-movie-titles/

   QUESTION NUMBER ONE:
   I want to change the image size from 'thumbnail' to 'medium'. I already tried changing the public-filters.php file. Instead of:

   'image_size' => 'thumbnail'

   I changed it to:

   'image_size' => 'medium'

   But the page still looks the same way.

   QUESTION NUMBER TWO:
   Why is my thumbnail for Taxonomy Images set to 75x75? I already changed my Media settings to use 228x155 for thumbnails.

   Michael, I need your help on these. Thanks in advance!

   Please post the exact code that you are using in your template file. Please also return download and install a fresh version of 0.7. I cannot help you if you are modifying the plugin files directly.

   Never mind, I came up with a quick solution.

   I only changed the file deprecated.php, specifically on specifying the size of the images. I changed 'detail' to 'thumbnail':

   Under function taxonomy_images_plugin_shortcode_deprecated( $atts = array() ):

   $defaults = array(
   'taxonomy' => 'category',
   'size' => 'thumbnail',
   'template' => 'list'
   );

   Also on defining the value of $img:

   $img = '';
   if ( array_key_exists( $term->term_taxonomy_id, $associations ) ) {
   $img = wp_get_attachment_image( $associations[$term->term_taxonomy_id], 'thumbnail', false );
   }

   Thanks again. Great plugin!

   Please do not use the deprecated functions!!!! They may not exist in the future. That's why I put them in the deprecated file and add comments that say "Do not use this!!!".

   Oops, sorry. I guess I'm such a nOOb in things like this. :)
   Can you point me in the right direction?

   No worries :) Moving forward, it's best to use the following style of code. It will give you more flexibility to customize + it will be absolutely invisible if you ever decide to uninstall the plugin:
   

   $terms = apply_filters( 'taxonomy-images-get-terms', '' );
   if ( ! empty( $terms ) ) {
       print '<ul>';
       foreach( (array) $terms as $term ) {
           print '<li><a href="' . esc_url( get_term_link( $term, $term->taxonomy ) ) . '">' . wp_get_attachment_image( $term->image_id, 'detail' ) . '</li>';
       }
       print '</ul>';
   }

   You can read more about how to customize it here: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/taxonomy-images/

   Are you planning to disable the shortcodes feature in the future? I'm using the shortcode and placed it onto a page:

   [taxonomy_image_plugin taxonomy="movie"]

   Yes. All shortcode functionality will be moved to my taxonomy list shortcode plugin.

   Aw, bummer. n00bs like me might find it a tad more difficult to place the Taxonomy Images list on a WordPress page. :( I'll just have to settle with the shortcode + deprecated file for now. I hope I can muster enough patience to dig through my templates. Thanks, Michael!

    There will be an automatic method in the next release of taxonomy list shortcode plugin. There will be two template that support images + have paging functionality built right in. Just need to fix some bugs and do some testing. Probably about a week or two.
