    Hello

    I am developing a theme where I am using a custom post type name ‘photo’. I Want too remove ‘Upload/Insert’ Media button from this custom post type but at the same time I want to keep it in Post.

    I found a code after searching where it remove the ‘Upload/Insert’ media button from both Custom Post type, Post and even from pages.

    add_action( 'media_buttons_context' , 'test' );
function test() {
	return;
}

    Please help me to remove it only from the custom post type.

    Thanks

    maybe there’s a more elegant way of doing this, but it works 🙂

    function check_post_type_and_remove_media_buttons() {
	$post_id = !empty( $_GET['post'] ) ? (int) $_GET['post'] : 0;
        $post_type = get_post_type($post_id);
	if( 'photo' == $post_type || 'photo' == $_GET['post_type']) {
		add_action( 'media_buttons_context' , create_function('', 'return;') );
	}
}
add_action('init','check_post_type_and_remove_media_buttons');

    Just saw you posted 4 mins ago and was looking for something very similar.

    Do you know how to remove the upload/insert buttons from the “posts” page, but still leave them on the “pages” pages please?

    Thanks

    @ ewencameron1,
    ok, and now elegant:

    function check_post_type_and_remove_media_buttons() {
	global $current_screen;
        // use 'post', 'page' or 'custom-post-type-name'
	if( 'post' == $current_screen->post_type ) add_action( 'media_buttons_context' , create_function('', 'return;') );
}
add_action('admin_head','check_post_type_and_remove_media_buttons');
