Suppress Extra Contact Info Fields added by AMT on User Editor Screen

Hi,

Sorry for the late reply.

This can be done by adding a function that filters the contactinfo fields in the functions.php file of your theme.

function amt_remove_user_contact_fields( $contactmethods ) {
  unset($contactmethods['amt_facebook_author_profile_url']);
  // ...
  // ...
  return $contactmethods;
}
add_filter('user_contactmethods','amt_remove_user_contact_fields', 10, 1);

The contact methods added by Add-Meta-Tags are:

amt_facebook_author_profile_url
amt_facebook_publisher_profile_url
amt_googleplus_author_profile_url
amt_googleplus_publisher_profile_url
amt_twitter_author_username
amt_twitter_publisher_username

Removing them is untested, completely unsupported and only provided for informational purposes. ??

Hey George –

I appreciate the reply! I will give this a shot. The hack solution I was using was applying “display: none;” styles via CSS, but that took some tweaking as I accidentally knocked out some other fields. This sounds like a better solution.

Thank you,

Dennis

Hi Dennis,

Maybe your solution with the CSS trick is by far better than the above. I haven’t tested the plugin after removing the contactinfo fields. Maybe there are errors etc.
