[Gelöst] Media embed at wrong text area

Hi,

I´ve created custom fields for a post type called "Referenz". I´ve defined three additional wsywig editor fields. The last field is only for generating a shortcode out of the media section of wordpress.

There is one problem now: everytime I select the media gallery for embedding to the editor, the shortcode is inserted at the very first editor area instead of the editor area where I´ve clicked on media. I´ve produced a little screencast: versteckter Link

And a second question: is it possible to disable content editor buttons at a wsywig editor field? For example: Toolset View embed button, bold, link, paragraphs etc.? It would be great if there is a possibility to only display the media button at this wsywig field. Is there any php code snippet for such a case?

Thanks and regards,

Hi, as a quick test, can you temporarily deactivate Elementor and Elementor Pro and try again? In my local testing the issue seems to be resolved when I deactivate Elementor. If so, that would indicate a 3-way compatibility issue between Elementor, WP Media Folder Gallery, and Types. If you confirm the same behavior, I'll have what I need to escalate the issue.

Hi,

when I disable elementor I´ve got the same issue. Have you disabled more plugins? You can test this by your own on our site - it´s a development site only.

P.S.: Have you considered my second question?

Okay I see now, I can replicate this with elementor inactive now if there is more than one WYSIWYG custom field. I'll have to escalate this to my 2nd tier support team as a compatibility issue. For now, it looks like the Media Gallery insert feature is working if I switch to the "Text" tab instead of the "Visual Editor" tab in the WYSIWYG field.

You can remove the Toolset Fields and Views button by adding this custom code to functions.php:

function remove_toolset_buttons(){

    // $post not available with init hook
    $postID = url_to_postid( $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] , '_wpg_def_keyword', true );
    $target_pages = array( 123, 456 ); // Edit for pages with CRED forms

    if ( in_array( $postID, $target_pages ) ) {

        // remove the Fields and Views button
        add_filter( 'toolset_editor_add_form_buttons', '__return_false' );
    }
}

add_action( 'init', 'remove_toolset_buttons' );

If you want to hide the toolbar buttons, I think the best way is to use CSS. You can create custom CSS and enqueue it for the admin screens using admin_enqueue_scripts https://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Action_Reference/admin_enqueue_scripts. Something like this will hide the toolbar buttons in the Visual and Text tabs of the Galerie field in the Referenzen field group:

.post-type-portfolio #qt_wpcf-galerie_toolbar * {
  display: none;
}

.post-type-portfolio #mceu_246 * {
    display: none;
}

Hi,

thanks. how can I set target pages to a whole custom post type or different custom post types?

Regards,

[Christian Cox]

You can apply whatever conditional logic you want based on knowing the $postID of the current URL. The code I provided is optimized for placement on individual posts by ID. If you want to apply the code to all posts in a single post type, you could check the post type slug of $postID against the desired post type slug, or against an array of desired post type slugs, or in a complex conditional of post IDs and post type slugs.

Hi,

thanks. The css code is very simple and I´ve set it successfully.

I´m not fully sure, how I can adapt your php script for defining whole post types to remove the toolsets buttom from the post editor. Can you show me an example please?

Regards,

[Christian Cox]

Use WordPress get_post_type() to check the post type of the current post:

function remove_toolset_buttons(){
 
    // $post not available with init hook
    $postID = url_to_postid( $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] , '_wpg_def_keyword', true );
    $postType = get_post_type($postID);
 
    if ( $postType == 'some-cpt-slug' ) {
 
        // remove the Fields and Views button
        add_filter( 'toolset_editor_add_form_buttons', '__return_false' );
    }
}
 
add_action( 'init', 'remove_toolset_buttons' );

Sorry, I chose the wrong status for this ticket. I am updating the ticket to set the correct status.

Hi,

thanks. I´ve inserted your code for Referenzen (post slug: portfolio):

// Remove Toolset Buttons bei Referenzen
function remove_toolset_buttons(){

    // $post not available with init hook
    $postID = url_to_postid( $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] , '_wpg_def_keyword', true );
    $postType = get_post_type($postID);

    if ( $postType == 'portfolio' ) {

        // remove the Fields and Views button
        add_filter( 'toolset_editor_add_form_buttons', '__return_false' );
    }
}

add_action( 'init', 'remove_toolset_buttons' );

I´m seeing the toolset button at every editor (I´ve inserted 3 editors for this post type). Seems to be that your code isn´t working.

[Christian Cox]

Sorry, I gave you the code for removing the buttons in a Form. Here is the code for removing the buttons in wp-admin:

add_action( 'current_screen','remove_admin_toolset_buttons' ,9 );
function remove_admin_toolset_buttons(){
  $screen = get_current_screen();
  if( is_admin() && $screen->post_type == 'portfolio'){
    add_filter( 'toolset_editor_add_form_buttons', '__return_false' );
  }
}

My issue is resolved now. Thank you!
