 * – WordPress v4.2
    – WP Media Category Management v1.4.5 – Enhanced Media Library
   v2.0.4.5
 * Hello, it seems that with my current configuration this plugin does not work.
 * This is the configuration of the plugin: [https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/5031944/WP-Media-Category-Management-3.png](https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/5031944/WP-Media-Category-Management-3.png)
 * For this test only this 2 plugins are active

   These are the 3 media I’m trying to select in bulk mode [https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/5031944/WP-Media-Category-Management-1.png](https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/5031944/WP-Media-Category-Management-1.png)
 * My media categories are correctly loaded in the bulk actions menu

 * Here is the url called when I hit the “Apply” buttton
    `http://localhost/wp-admin/
   upload.php?bulk_tax_id=contorni&bulk_tax_cat=media_category&mode=list&attachment-
   filter=&m=0&media_category=0&media_category=0&s=&_wpnonce=c7a7b5463f&_wp_http_referer
   =%2Fwp-admin%2Fupload.php&action=bulk_toggle&paged=1&media%5B%5D=2357&media%5B%
   5D=2355&media%5B%5D=2356&action2=-1&affected=&_ajax_nonce=0b701ef95e&ps=`
 * After the “Apply” button has been pressed, the page refreshes but no categories
   has been applied.
 * I don’t see any javascript or network error in the Chrome Debugger, so I don’t
   know how to investigate this problem.
 * Thanks

 * Hai Nicola,
 * Thanks for using my plugin.
    I’ve tested and can repeat the situation you describe.
 * Question: Is it really necessary for you to have the Enhanced Media Library plugin
   active?
    Because this is causing the issue. When I disable that plugin, bulk 
   editing is working with me. And you can still use the categories you already 
   defined. Could you try this?
 * For you convenience, in WP MCM Settings, you could rename the taxonomy to “ELM
   Categories” using the Custom Names options.

 * Hello DeBAAT,
    thank you for your reply.
 * The only reason for having both plugins active is because I thought that _WP 
   Media Category Management_ was complementary to the EML plugin.
 * Now I deactivated the EML plugin and your toggle actions works.
 * Thanks
