Installation Instructions
Preparation
Before you begin, make sure you have the Divi Theme by Elegant Themes installed and active. This is necessary since our product is completely based on Divi.
Download
After purchase, download the .zip file from your My Account page at https://www.peeayecreative.com/my-account/ or click the download link in your purchase confirmation email and save the file to your computer.
NOTE: If you purchased this product from a 3rd party marketplace such as the official Divi Marketplace, Divi Cake, or Elegant Marketplace, the process of downloading the file may vary slightly. You will always be able to download the file from your account, no matter where you made the purchase.
Installation
You will install this plugin just like any other WordPress plugin. From your WordPress Dashboard, go to Appearance>Plugins>Add New and click on Upload Plugin. Locate the .zip file on your computer and click Install Now.
Once the file upload is finished, you can click on Activate. You will then see Divi Taxonomy Helper as an active plugin in your Installed Plugins list.
Getting Started
Once installed and active, the plugin does several things. First, it allows you to add featured image support to any taxonomy on your website. The settings page allows you to choose which taxonomies you want to use, such as Categories and Tags. It provides support for these images in the Divi Theme Builder templates. It also creates a new Divi module which you can find in the Divi Builder. Everything about the module works just like any other Divi modules, so it will be very easy to use for anyone already familiar with how Divi works. In fact, the module is very similar to the Blog module, but display taxonomies instead of posts.
Enable Featured Image Support For Taxonomies
Go to the WordPress Settings>Divi Taxonomy Images. This brings up the settings page to choose the taxonmies on your website for which you would like to enable featued image support.

Add A Featured Image To The Indivual Taxonomy Term
Next, go to the selected taxonomies and add a featured image to each taxonomy term. For example, if you added support for blog Post Categories, you would click on each indvidiaul category and add an image that represents that category.
