Any image uploaded to a post in the post editor is “attached to” that post. Actually, you can only set an attached image as Featured Image (aka Post Thumbnail — not to be confused with “Thumbnails”), and it’s NOT vice-versa. If you do not want an image to be attached to a post, you can … Read more
The attachment URL is created in wp-includes/link-template.php in function get_attachment_link(). And there is a filter for you, passing the WordPress URL and the post id for the attachment. You can hook into that filter and return the URL you need: add_filter( ‘attachment_link’, ‘wpse_56619_unprettify_attachment_url’, 10, 2 ); function wpse_56619_unprettify_attachment_url( $link, $id ) { return home_url( “/?attachment_id=$id” … Read more
Your best bet is to go with option 2 and alter the DB or use a plugin like http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/add-from-server/, I can’t imagine uploading 3k large files through a http interface like the WP uploader. A 3rd and probably better option is to just use a CDN like amazon to host the media files, since WordPress … Read more
You’re right, it’s because by default, wp_handle_sideload() requires a valid extension in the URI in order to continue processing the sideload. That is, unless your role has a capability called ‘unfiltered_upload‘, which by default is only given to admins. If it seems appropriate (and safe) for you to grant this capability to the user role … Read more
Try uploading the image again now you’ve set up the media settings, this should fix it.
What is ‘two’ referring to? Is that a custom image size? Place the following var_dump(‘<pre>’,$image,'</pre>’); after your declared $image variable like so, $image = wp_get_attachment_image_src( get_post_thumbnail_id( $post->ID ), ‘two’ ); var_dump(‘<pre>’,$image,'</pre>’); and provide the results so we can inspect the output. As per Codex the second argument in this function, wp_get_attachment_image_src( $attachment_id, $size, $icon ); … Read more
The hook you choose is appropriate, and here is how to use it to delete all posts of all types (posts, pages, links, attachments, etc) of the deleted user: add_action(‘delete_user’, ‘my_delete_user’); function my_delete_user($user_id) { $args = array ( ‘numberposts’ => -1, ‘post_type’ => ‘any’, ‘author’ => $user_id ); // get all posts by this user: … Read more
add_action( ‘add_meta_boxes’, ‘attached_images_meta’ ); function attached_images_meta() { $screens = array( ‘post’, ‘page’ ); //add more in here as you see fit foreach ($screens as $screen) { add_meta_box( ‘attached_images_meta_box’, //this is the id of the box ‘Attached Images’, //this is the title ‘attached_images_meta_box’, //the callback $screen, //the post type ‘side’ //the placement ); } } function … Read more
You are correct. The menu_order is no longer used for media in the gallery. Not sure if this is by design or an oversight. Could be by design since you can now include media in a gallery even if it is not “attached” to the page/post. In any case, below is the method I use … Read more
To solve the problem 1, you could hook to add_attachment and edit_attachment hook. add_action(‘add_attachment’, ‘wpse_set_attachment_category’); add_action(‘edit_attachment’, ‘wpse_set_attachment_category’); function wpse_set_attachment_category( $post_ID ) { // if attachment already have categories, stop here if( wp_get_object_terms( $post_ID, ‘category’ ) ) return; // no, then get the default one $post_category = array( get_option(‘default_category’) ); // then set category if default … Read more
