Category Images In Hero Header

Hi there,

Can you tell us how you've added featured images to the categories?

If we know how they're assigned, perhaps we can apply the same idea on the topics I've provided here:

Thanks for the reply! I am currently using WP Term Images to link the images to the categories. I have tried other taxonomy-based image plugins but I couldn't get them to work.

Hi! I also tried David's recommendations in the post you linked. I tried the 'Categories Images' plugin and added the line of PHP to a hook. The hook works, but the image is not displaying. I am not sure how to call the image.

Not exactly sure how WP Term images work but assuming the PHP Snippet in their plugin page is still valid - https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-term-images/#how%20do%20i%20get%20the%20image%20for%20a%20term%3F - this PHP snippet should work:

function wp_term_images_category_featured_image( $url ) {
    $term_id = get_queried_object()->term_id;

    // image id is stored as term meta
    $image_id = get_term_meta( $term_id, 'image', true );

    // image data stored in array, second argument is which image size to retrieve
    $image_data = wp_get_attachment_image_src( $image_id, 'full' );

    // image url is the first item in the array (aka 0)
    $background_image = $image_data[0];
    if ( $background_image ) {
        $url = $background_image;
    }
    return $url;
}

add_action('wp', function(){
	if(is_archive()){
		add_filter( 'generate_page_hero_background_image_url', 'wp_term_images_category_featured_image'  );
	}
});
