Title: Edit box "Inserted in" Last modified: August 21, 2016 --- # Edit box "Inserted in" * Resolved [Anthony Martin](https://wordpress.org/support/users/spidlace/) * (@spidlace) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/edit-box-inserted-in/) * Hi David, * Good work for this plugin ! * I want to customize the metabox “Inserted in” beacause, there are a lot of informations, I don’t want.. * This is a screen actually : * [http://img4.hostingpics.net/pics/519333screenmedialirabryassistantbefore.jpg](http://img4.hostingpics.net/pics/519333screenmedialirabryassistantbefore.jpg) * And this is what I want : * [http://img4.hostingpics.net/pics/546732screenmedialirabryassistantafter.jpg](http://img4.hostingpics.net/pics/546732screenmedialirabryassistantafter.jpg) * I don’t want the ID and the word PARENT… Do you have any hook in your plugin? Or how can I edit this metabox ? (not directely in the plugin)… * Thanks you 🙂 * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/media-library-assistant/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/media-library-assistant/) Viewing 6 replies - 1 through 6 (of 6 total) * Plugin Author [David Lingren](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dglingren/) * (@dglingren) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/edit-box-inserted-in/#post-5065377) * Thank you for your kind words and for your interesting question. * The current MLA version does not have any hooks for the enhanced meta boxes it adds to the Media/Edit Media screen, but it is a reasonable thing to add. I will do some experimenting and see if I can add the hooks and an example of using them to the next MLA version. * I will leave this topic unresolved for now and update it when I have progress to report. * Thanks for the idea and for your patience while I pursue it. * Thread Starter [Anthony Martin](https://wordpress.org/support/users/spidlace/) * (@spidlace) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/edit-box-inserted-in/#post-5065462) * Very nice ! I wait this update with impatience. * Thanks you * Plugin Author [David Lingren](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dglingren/) * (@dglingren) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/edit-box-inserted-in/#post-5065560) * I have completed development of nine new filters that give great control over formatting and displaying the “Edit Media enhanced meta boxes.” I have created an example plugin for the filters and added code to implement the simplified “ Inserted in” format you gave in your example. Here is the code for your example: * ``` /** * MLA Inserted in Meta Box Filter * * This filter gives you an opportunity to modify the "Inserted in" meta box. * * @since 1.00 * * @param array ( [inserts] => default text, [rows] => textbox rows, [cols] => textbox columns ) * @param array the attachment references information for this post * @param object the current post * * @return array updated text, rows, columns */ public static function mla_inserted_in_meta_box_filter( $inserts, $references, $post ) { //error_log( 'MLAMetaboxHooksExample::mla_inserted_in_meta_box_filter $inserts = ' . var_export( $inserts, true ), 0 ); //error_log( 'MLAMetaboxHooksExample::mla_inserted_in_meta_box_filter $references = ' . var_export( $references, true ), 0 ); //error_log( 'MLAMetaboxHooksExample::mla_inserted_in_meta_box_filter $post = ' . var_export( $post, true ), 0 ); $new_inserts = array(); $upload_dir = wp_upload_dir(); $file_url = $upload_dir['baseurl'] . '/' . $references['base_file']; $new_inserts[] = $references['file']; $new_inserts[] = '(' . $file_url . ')'; // Index on post ID to eliminate duplicates $base_references = array(); foreach( $references['inserts'] as $key => $file_references ) { foreach ( $file_references as $reference ) { $base_references[ $reference->ID ] = $reference; } } foreach ( $base_references as $reference ) { $new_inserts[] = $reference->post_title; $new_inserts[] = '(' . get_permalink( $reference->ID, false ) . ')'; } $inserts['inserts'] = implode( "\n", $new_inserts ); return $inserts; } // mla_inserted_in_meta_box_filter ``` * These improvements will be in my next MLA version. If you’d like to test the improvements, please send me a note with your e-mail address and I will give you a copy by return e-mail.

I test it, and you do a great job for this news hooks !! * But I have one question. It is possible to remove textarea for metabox ? Because, when I want to add some HTML and CSS in this text, I can’t and my tag are visible and not understand by the browser… Do you see what I mean ? * (this is a screenshot for understand my problem) * [http://img4.hostingpics.net/pics/842232mla.png](http://img4.hostingpics.net/pics/842232mla.png) Viewing 6 replies - 1 through 6 (of 6 total) The topic ‘Edit box "Inserted in"’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://ps.w.org/media-library-assistant/assets/icon-256x256.png?rev=973502) * [Media Library Assistant](https://wordpress.org/plugins/media-library-assistant/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/media-library-assistant/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/media-library-assistant/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/media-library-assistant/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/media-library-assistant/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/media-library-assistant/reviews/) ## Tags * [custom](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/custom/) * [edit](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/edit/) * [metabox](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/metabox/) * 6 replies * 2 participants * Last reply from: [Anthony Martin](https://wordpress.org/support/users/spidlace/) * Last activity: [11 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/edit-box-inserted-in/#post-5065605) * Status: resolved
