This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem: I have a WYSIWYG field that includes a link button. I would like to restrict existing content links by post type.
Solution: The following code sample shows how to restrict entire post types from the existing content link menu:
// filter custom post types out of existing content link options in tinyMCE
function custom_wp_link_query_args($query)
{
$pt_new = array();
$exclude_types = array( 'book', 'chapter' );
foreach ($query['post_type'] as $pt)
{
if (in_array($pt, $exclude_types)) continue;
$pt_new[] = $pt;
}
$query['post_type'] = $pt_new;
return $query;
}
add_filter('wp_link_query_args', 'custom_wp_link_query_args');

Hi,
I am building a cred form so that a profile owner can edit his or her article. In a WYSIWYG-field people are able to insert a link with the tinyMCE button 'insert link'. In the field that opens on the right side there is a buttin 'Link settings'. If you open that you can select Exsisting content in a list. In that list there are also posts from custom post types that should not be selected. Can I or remove those entries from that list, or remove the list of remove the button. So that the users can not select the wrong links.
My site is under construction. There is a online version but not publicly open. I can provide inlogs for you if you need them.
Kind Regards,
Sandra Berends
