    Hello I was wondering how you determine if you are on a page with post_type download in the admin section. In admin/downloads/metabox.php you just register add_action( ‘add_meta_boxes’, ‘edd_add_download_meta_box’ );
    Thought it must be shown when adding download, post and site as well.

    But why this is only shown on your download site? How do you achieve this programmatically?

    Hi there,
    We don’t actually. What you’ll notice is that add_action, though hooking into the add_meta_boxes doesn’t actually add any metaboxes itself. It’s the add_action for metaboxes contained inside that function that tells the metaboxes when to appear by using the post type parameter.

    Does that make sense?

    Hi chriscct7,

    thank you very much. I didn’t assumed that wp would handle the post_type for me.
    I just want to add additional js code on every download post in the admin section. I hooked into the post site and checked if post_type is download. This works very well for new downloads but if you are in the download overview list table and want to edit a download the argument post_type is not appended to the get parameters. There is just action=edit.
    Maybe there is a reason for this on your part.
