Thanks for confirming what I also assumed – a read-only approach.

I’ve therefore deactivated another plugin I’ve been testing simultaneously – Justified Image Grid. Lo and behold – that was the culprit 🙂

I will deal with the plugin author.

Thanks again for your quick response.

I’m looking forward your updates regarding plugin enhancements! Do you want me to submit my contact details in the above contact form?

Hi David,

Thanks for your quick and very constructive reply. It seems you are definitely serious about your plugin! Often I experience no reply or vague replies – this is really interesting.

I’m referring to images attached to posts, meaning those displayed in Edit Post + Add Media + Uploaded to this post, which I guess is the same as post_parent matching the post ID. But I’d prefer if I could have the Featured Image + those inserted in post, as I sometimes upload images to a post that I do not display in the published post. So I’ve got posts with let’s say 4 uploaded images, but only 2 published (one Featured Image and one inserted in post’s body).

With linkage/inheritance I mean that as soon as I’ve selected categories (preferably also Tags) for the post, the uploaded images will inherit these categories (and preferably the Tags as well), so that I do not have to click the same categories again just for the images

As Custom Taxonomies are custom, I think that should be for a future version.

1: When categories of the post are changed, this should also happen for the photos.
2: When detached/Featured image is deleted it should revert back to orphaned/default state / no categories (however this is rarely a situation, as I don’t upload or keep images just for themselves – they are basically orphans).

For the time being I find categories to be most relevant, but somewhere down the road I think tags should have the same methodology, as images are uploaded to be part of a post, which is also tagged.

I haven’t used the EXIF MLA features, as I have a custom EXIF plugin that dynamically displays image EXIF on mouse over, and that is sufficient for me.

I don’t understand why one would need separate Att. Categories and Att. Tags for images and posts they belong to. This creates a separatistic and non-holistic system.

Let’s give an example – I have a post with category-tree “Plants”, “Flowers”, “Asteraceae”, and then the species of the plant as the title – e.g. “Erato polymnioides”, and the photos of this species with text describing this species and how I found it. They are both linked in content and meaning. I naturally must have these images with the same categories, if not I’m creating a different and non-related Category-tree.

This means that when I have an image-only representation/photostream I will be able to select all images belonging to one family of plants. Thus I can filter on categories from two sides: posts or images.

Another example – let us say I have a travel blog. I have photos from Sydney, and Darling Harbour – both are Categories (could be tags also, of course). I have several posts from Darling Harbour all with images. If I want to have a gallery of all images from Darling Harbour with a parallel set of categories, I have to maintain a second set of categories with identical names in order to have any meaning, as these images are also in posts where the stories and details for these locations are. This parallelism makes no sense and is manual, and thus will be inconsistent over time.

Looking forward to your response.

I’ve discussed this with the developers, and they have revealed something quite well hidden, and following a different logic:

In User Agents Groups, check “Enabled” under Group Name “1.High”, with Theme set to “Pass-through”

Enable Browser Cache

I discussed this with WPTouch/bravenewcode.com that have now updated their guide to reflect this.

Please test and verify.

I’ve got this resolved with help from coder.

Problem resolved by replacing the above rewrite/direct rule with this line:
