Search by media attachment

#41579

I have added a category to media attachments and set up the search and filter however I do not know if my settings are wrong or something else is glitchy, but no results appear. The filter appears on the sidebar as I set it up however it says will not display any results.

To be more specific, I added this to my functions file:

function wptp_add_categories_to_attachments() {
register_taxonomy_for_object_type( ‘category’, ‘attachment’ );
}
add_action( ‘init’ , ‘wptp_add_categories_to_attachments’ );

gave a media attachment a category name, selected “media” in general settings, selected Tag, Category & Taxonomy Archives under Detect defaults from current page and made sure to include the category ID to pull from. As I mentioned, I can get the filter to display but not the actual media attachment. Please assist.

Thank you!

Hi Julie

Do you have a link I could look at?

Thanks

This is the link but unfortunately I am not sure it’s going to help troubleshoot:

Here is a link of a page that does work the way I want/it’s supposed to, but it links to posts and not media attachments:

That looks like we’re making some headway, but when I click on “camera equipment”, nothing shows up. It only shows up under “all”.
