Add 'artist' equivalent to 'author' archive #164

Open briggySmalls opened 5 years ago

briggySmalls commented 5 years ago

Currently the author of a post is supplied as a taxonomy, and an archive is enabled to show all posts by that author.

It looks like with a bit of poking wordpress could be coerced into displaying an archive of 'attachments' (read images/media).

This is an argument for saving the image credit #155 with the image and not the post, so that all artwork (whether displayed in an article body or as the featured image) could be displayed on such an archive if it was supplied.

@CiaranChris would be interested to know if you think this would be desireable

The media modal seems to be a right bugger https://github.com/pods-framework/pods/issues/3765

ACF to the rescue! It looks like this is supported out of the box by the plugin.

I just need to remove the default field to ensure it can be saved

I'm into this idea. We've had the discussion before and happy to implement this.

That could be quite nice to have it displayed like an archive. How could we achieve this, what do you need from me?

If we make this feature live are we able to see how useful it is for the end user? or how much it get's used, I have a feeling it'll be used by us, well creative team at least a lot more 😁

I think I'll be concentrating on some other stuff for the time being. Fixing up bugs here and there, and adding previously-requested features. But it is good to know that this is desirable, to know how to structure stuff. I think the plan would be I make a basic example on the demo site and show you and we then discuss. So I don't need anything from you right now.

Yes we can! I have google analytics up and running. It tells you some info on site visitors (where in world, whether on mobile/desktop) and which sites they visited. Can you make sure you have a google account, and send it to me in Slack. I'll get you access.
