I found this thread while trying to accomplish the same thing. Here’s the solution that I came up with for a blog running WordPress 2.9.2 that has the taxonomy Artist Type defined only for Pages. I needed to query all pages that had a term of this taxonomy associated to them. Here’s what I did:

$artist_ids = array();
$artists = $wpdb->get_results( "
	SELECT p.*
	FROM $wpdb->posts AS p, $wpdb->term_taxonomy as tt, $wpdb->term_relationships as tr
	WHERE tt.taxonomy = 'artist-type'
	AND tt.term_taxonomy_id = tr.term_taxonomy_id
	AND tr.object_id = p.ID
	AND p.post_type = 'page'
	AND p.post_status = 'publish'
	ORDER BY p.menu_order ASC
	" );

if ( $artists ) {
	/* Create an array filled with the ids of all artist posts. */
	foreach( $artists as $artist )
		$artist_ids[] = $artist->ID;

	/* Make sure the postmeta is cached. */
	if( !empty( $artist_ids ) )
		update_meta_cache( 'post', $artist_ids );

	/* Loop over artists */
	foreach( $artist_pages as $post ) {
		setup_postdata( $post );
		#Do wordpress loop stuff here.
	}
}

I know using custom queries is not really the best practice, but I also don’t see the database structure change very much either.

Hope someone finds this useful.

This code will display a list of all terms of a given taxonomy that have images associated to them via the plugin. Please change the second argument of get_the_terms() to the value of the slug of your custom taxonomy.

$terms = get_the_terms( $post->ID, 'my-custom-taxonomy-slug' );
if ( $terms ) {
	foreach( $terms as $t ) {
		$url = get_term_link( $t->name, $t->taxonomy );
		$img = $taxonomy_images_plugin->get_image_html( 'detail', $t->term_taxonomy_id );
		if( !empty( $img ) )
			print '<a title="' . $t->name . '" href="' . $url . '">' . $img . '</a>';
	}
}

If I were building the site, I would opt for two different categories. Not sure what you mean by subscription… in the event that you mean subscription by rss feed, wordpress will automatically create a feed for each category. Check out the random category feed from my site -> all other categories are excluded.

A couple things could be going on here.

Have you uploaded any images before you installed the plugin?

If so, are these the images that are missing?

Was the image that is displaying uploaded after the plugin was installed?

The plugin adds a new image size that is 75×75 pixels cropped. Are the images that are not being displayed less than 75×75 pixels?

eduardozulian,

Hi. No problem, it was fun to make! Thanks for writing about this problem… I have not experienced this in my testing but if you could provide the following information, I would be happy to debug the problem and see if I can find a solution.

1. Your operating system.
2. Your browser name and version number.
3. The version of WordPress you installed the plugin on.

Thanks,
-Mike

No problem… whenever you’re doing something like this just remember that get_bloginfo() returns a value while bloginfo() prints a value. They both accept exactly the same arguments.
