Great post! Really helps since the codex currently doesn’t have documentation on the form_fields hooks, or the edited_term hooks. Thanks again for the solution!

Hi, thanx for this tipp, you saved my life. I found out, that the code and the plugin you provide did not work with my theme on wordpress 3.0.4.:

Its because you use “edit_category_form_fields” instead of ” category_add_form_fields”

Brad, with your very helpful example, I was able to get started on a helper class to aid developers with adding meta data to taxonomies and other useful features. Early release on github ... WPAlchemy_Taxonomy.

Thanks For the tip Brad,
Just a quick note, I saw this implemented in WP e-Commerce for product Categories in 3.8, and noticed the alignment was off we fixed it by removing the and td’s and replacing it with
Could just be something we did, but thought I’ll leave a note..

actually, if you could enhance the sample plugin with code on how to do this for more than one additional option per category (stored in wp_options as an array) I would be over the moon.

So how would we actually USE the values that we store like this, in say, a WordPress post or page?

Hi Brad,

I’m trying to do something like this for taxonomy terms… but with more meta data… do you have any ideas how to pull that one off? I’d like to add at least 4 new fields and an image for each taxonomy term…
