Descripcion
If you ever wanted to tag your media contents in WordPress, now you can. Tags can provide a comprehensive organization of different medias from different posts. Each tag is working like an own group. Medias with the same tags can be filtered by clicking on their tag names inside the media library. This helps you to organize a large amount of medias and even more: With a shortcode you can display all medias from a specific tag like a gallery.
Features
- Ability to tag media contents
- Separate taxonomy for media tags
- Displaying tags in library
- Extra field for media tags during upload
- Support for multiple tags in shortcode
- Localization in English and German
- No coding needed
- Custom image sizes
