Include other post types in ‘show authors last post’?

Hi Lars,

That sounds like a good idea
I will have to look at how to do it etc.

Hi Lars

I have already coded a filter ‘aa_user_show_last_post_type’ you can use this to change the post type

Paul

	$args     = array(
			'author'              => $user_id,
			/**
			 * Filter the users last post type. Default is "posts"
			 *
			 * @since 1.9.2
			 *
			 * @param int $user_id The Current user ID.
			 */
			'post_type'           => apply_filters( 'aa_user_show_last_post_type', 'post', $user_id ),
			'post_status'         => 'publish',
			'posts_per_page'      => 1,
			'ignore_sticky_posts' => 1,
		);

Hi Paul

Thank you for working on this .

I am not so comfortable with editing source code…I can only add snippets to functions.php.

Or is there any other way I can try your filter?

Cheers Lars

try this sniped adjust the post type name as needed

`add_filter(‘aa_user_show_last_post_type’, function(){

return ‘events’; // the event post type name get from url in wp-admin
});

Thanks, but I get a critical error when I use this in Code snippets.

This is the log:

Uncaught Error: Undefined constant "‘aa_user_show_last_post_type’" in /nas/content/live/dhta/wp-content/plugins/code-snippets/php/admin-menus/class-edit-menu.php(253) : eval()'d code:1 Stack trace: #0 /nas/content/live/dhta/wp-content/plugins/code-snippets/php/admin-menus/class-edit-menu.php(253): eval() #1 /nas/content/live/dhta/wp-content/plugins/code-snippets/php/admin-menus/class-edit-menu.php(312): Code_Snippets\Edit_Menu->test_code(Object(Code_Snippets\Snippet)) #2 /nas/content/live/dhta/wp-content/plugins/code-snippets/php/admin-menus/class-edit-menu.php(150): Code_Snippets\Edit_Menu->save_posted_snippet() #3 /nas/content/live/dhta/wp-content/plugins/code-snippets/php/admin-menus/class-edit-menu.php(82): Code_Snippets\Edit_Menu->process_actions() #4 /nas/content/live/dhta/wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php(307): Code_Snippets\Edit_Menu->load('') #5 /nas/content/live/dhta/wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php(331): WP_Hook->apply_filters('', Array) #6 /nas/content/live/dhta/wp-includes/plugin.php(476): WP_Hook->do_action(Array) #7 /nas/content/live/dhta/wp-admin/admin.php(237): do_action('load-snippets_p...') #8 {main} thrown

It looks like the text had fancy quotes

add_filter(“aa_user_show_last_post_type”, function(){

return “events”; // the event post type name get from url in wp-admin
});

OK-confirmed , this works… if you pay attention to the fancy quotes – powerful small bugs ?? Thank you for your patience with me.

Would it be too hard to show the authors newest event OR post: If post is the most recent, show post, if event, show event.

Cheers, Lars
