Title: Can't Get Started… Last modified: August 22, 2016 --- # Can't Get Started… * [Type Historian](https://wordpress.org/support/users/type-historian/) * (@type-historian) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-get-started-9/) * Suffusion 4.4.7 Child Theme Easy Digital Downloads 2.3.4 * This plugin seems promising for organizing images by tags, which are very important for the eCommerce site that I’m building. * After installing it, the admin bar shows the Settings and Shortcode dialogs. * The problem is that the admin panels illustrated in the screenshots do not appear, even when all others are deactivated: * Settings Dialog. These are my settings. As you can see, there is no “Categories” option in the Media menu: * [https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/78278455/Bazaar/Media%20Categories%20Manager/MCM.jpg](https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/78278455/Bazaar/Media%20Categories%20Manager/MCM.jpg) * So none of the functions that depend on it are working. * Have I missed a step or done something wrong? * Disappointed and confused, Anna [http://bazaar.typeheritage.com](http://bazaar.typeheritage.com) * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-media-category-management/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-media-category-management/) Viewing 7 replies - 1 through 7 (of 7 total) * Plugin Author [DeBAAT](https://wordpress.org/support/users/debaat/) * (@debaat) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-get-started-9/#post-5934871) * Hai Anna, Sorry to read you are disappointed. * Looking at your screenshot (very helpful), it looks like you are using the “Tags” category for media. The “(P)” shown in front of it indicates that this is a category also used for posts. This also implies that managing this category is done in the menu related to Posts. * You should be able to use these categories in the media pages. * Hope this helps. * Thread Starter [Type Historian](https://wordpress.org/support/users/type-historian/) * (@type-historian) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-get-started-9/#post-5934938) * So far, there are 29 post tags: * [https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/78278455/Bazaar/Plugins/MCM-02.zip](https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/78278455/Bazaar/Plugins/MCM-02.zip) * The MCM settings dialog box seems to detect only one of them. * Please understand that I am NOT a web design pro. I am a historian semi-clueless of code, struggling to present many years of research to potential patrons of authentic digital revivals of 19th- and 20th-century type designs. * If I have missed a step or done something wrong, please teach me how to fix my mistake. I am BRAVE when following specific directions about exactly what code to add exactly where. * Hopeful for a solution, Anna * Plugin Author [DeBAAT](https://wordpress.org/support/users/debaat/) * (@debaat) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-get-started-9/#post-5935141) * Hai Anna, * I’ve tested your request and I’m sorry to say that what you would like is currently not possible with this plugin. * It seems to work only with categories and not with tags, although it does seem to. I’ll have a look soon to try to fix it. In the meantime, would it be possible for you to use categories in stead of tags? * Thread Starter [Type Historian](https://wordpress.org/support/users/type-historian/) * (@type-historian) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-get-started-9/#post-5935237) * The problem is that I need to use both categories and tags–tags are assigned to items in multiple categories. * The fonts are highly classified by style category. For example, the tag “banner” describes a decorative treatment for fonts in three different style groups, like this: * [http://bazaar.typeheritage.com/banner/](http://bazaar.typeheritage.com/banner/) * Other tags are for terms like 1880s, name of the designer, etc. All tags apply to styles in any category. * There are plenty of plugins for categories. I really need one that has the muscle to handle tags like a filter. * I surely appreciate your work on this project. Maybe soon my “dream plugin” will come true! * Thanks again for trying, Anna * Plugin Author [DeBAAT](https://wordpress.org/support/users/debaat/) * (@debaat) * [11 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-get-started-9/#post-5935417) * Hai Anna, * As you might have noticed, I updated the plugin to version 1.5.0. It now includes the support for post_tag as you asked for. Can you see whether this is working for you? * Good luck!

I’m committed to this choice because of a certain critical EDD widget: * [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/overjoyed-1?replies=1](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/overjoyed-1?replies=1) * Next, I’ll try the WP Media Category Management update and report progress later this week. At this point, I’m looking for a way to display [on a WP page or post] results matching the queries addressed by the above-cited EDD widget. * Thanks again for your remarkable efforts, Anna * Plugin Author [DeBAAT](https://wordpress.org/support/users/debaat/) * (@debaat) * [10 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-get-started-9/#post-5935437) * Hai Anna, * Just uploaded V1.6.0 which added some features. Hope you can use some 😉 * One I like particularly is the new feature adding a MCM Category widget. With this widget, you can add a list of MCM categories to a front-end page using the new widget.
