Wordpress 4.4 just got released ! They introduced Term meta:
"Terms now support metadata, just like posts. See add_term_meta(), get_term_meta(), and update_term_meta() for more information."

For a long time, this seemed to me as a clear missing functionality. Having only a description field for a category is a big limitation !

Will types manage those ?
Actually, I am sure you guys will make it happen 🙂
But do you already have a release planned about this ?

Thank you for contacting us here in the Support Forum

We are working on adding support for taxonomy meta to both WPML and Toolset.

This development work will take us a few more weeks to complete.

When it's ready, Toolset will support taxonomy meta very similarly to custom fields (for posts).
WPML will allow to translate taxonomy meta when sending posts to translation and via the 'Taxonomy translation' admin screens.

Unfortunately I can't state a exact ETA but this will be announce in our ChangeLog once it's released and probably also in our Blog.

Please do not hesitate to open a new thread if other issues or problems arise

Thank you for your patience.
