• Unless I have just missed it, I don’t any documentation about shortcodes, other than the example in the FAQ. I have some questions that I hope someone can answer based on that example:

    [gallery media_category="5" category="2" limit="10" monthnum="12" year="2015" orderby="title" order="DESC"]

    1. Where media_category=”5″ is shown, would this assume that if I have a taxonomy audio_category that I would need to use the ID? How do if find the ID? I have the plugin Reveal IDs, but it does not work in the Media Taxonomies settings.

    2. Is it possible to list multiple, e.g., media_category=”5,6″

    3. Where category=”2″ monthnum=”12″ year=”2015″ is shown, would this assume that these are EML categores and Non-Media Taxonomies?

    4. Can I do the equivalent for playlists of audio using [playlist]?

    5. Is there a best practice for dealing with JPG EXIF metadata?

    6. Is there a way to deal with SVG?

    Forgot to mention, I’m using EML version 2.1.5 and WP version 4.4.1.

    Hello @elarson,

    1. Correct, it’s the taxonomy term ID. To find the ID open your taxonomy term for edit and find tag_ID=5 in the URL. Or use Reveal IDs plugin.

    2. Yes

    3. Yes, any taxonomy assigned to media library will work

    4. No, the functionality will be added to the next releases

    5. EML can’t deal with EXIF matadata at the moment

    6. You can add SVG as allowed to upload MIME type, but there is no extended support of it in EML at the moment

    Thank you for your questions. The documentation will be available soon on wpUXsolutions.com

    Hello,

    The answer for 4 is Yes since v2.1.6

    Nadia, Many thanks for your answers.

    I just updated to v2.1.6 and see the audio [playlist]. That’s nice, because audio is primarily what this site will be using. I still need to test it.

    I still can’t seem to find the taxonomy term ID in the URL or see it shown using the Reveal IDs plugin.

    When I select Media Settings > Taxonomies > Edit > Audio Categories the URL shows only /wp-admin/options-media.php?page=eml-taxonomies-options

    When I select Media > Audio Categories it shows the slug /wp-admin/edit-tags.php?taxonomy=audio_category&post_type=attachment

    If I can use the taxonomy slug name instead of the taxonomy ID, that would work also.

    Can I also use [playlist media_category=”audio_category”… ?

    Sorry, but I have not had time to test everything, and it will be faster to know in advance rather than just trying things.

    Hello @elarson,

    Audio Categories is a taxonomy. Media Categories is another taxonomy. Post Categories is one more taxonomy. Any taxonomy has its terms or consists of its terms. The terms of the post Categories – built-in WP taxonomy – we are used to call simply categories. The terms of your Audio Categories should be called audio categories. This can give rise to confusion, as you can see. We can say that the set of terms is called taxonomy – hope this sounds less confusing.

    You can add terms for Audio Categories on Media > Audio Categories. I can’t know the real names of your audio categories, but let’s assume they are Audiocat1 and Audiocat2.

    Please visit Media > Audio Categories, click on Audiocat1 and you’ll see URL like this:

    /wp-admin/edit-tags.php?action=edit&taxonomy=audio_category&tag_ID=5&post_type=attachment…

    So, 5 is the Audiocat1’s ID.

    You should use:

    [playlist audio_category="5"]

    Please feel free to ask for further help if you need it.

    Hi Nadia,

    I think you answered my question. The taxonomy is the slug, and there is no taxonomy ID. That’s where I was confused.

    Is it also possible to use the slug name for taxonomy terms (a.k.a. categories)? for example [playlist audio_category="my-slug"]?

    I develope multiple sites and trying to figure out the scope of things, and hope you don’t mind all of my questions. I’m also trying to sort this out with custom posts, and as you are probably aware, that gets rather confusing.
