This code enables you to add a image upload field to all Edit Category pages which also includes Edit category pages for child categories.
You can also use this code for any taxonomy type simply by replacing all instances of category with the name of your taxonomy in the upload.php file.
Here’s an example showing a grid of images for each child category of 1 parent. Each image links back to the child category archive page.
The solution also includes a page template which you can use to display the image for each category or child category.
