Are you looking to enable post-by-email functionality in your WordPress site? The enable_post_by_email_configuration filter can help you with that! This filter allows you to control whether the post-by-email feature is enabled.
To use the enable_post_by_email_configuration filter, you need to register it using add_filter. You can add this code to the functions.php file of your active theme or in a custom WordPress plugin. At WePlugins, we recommend creating a custom WordPress plugin for such customizations to ensure your changes aren’t lost during theme updates.
Here are some live examples of how you can use this filter:
Example 1: Enabling Post by Email
This example demonstrates how to use the enable_post_by_email_configuration filter to enable the post-by-email functionality.
function weplugins_modify_enable_post_by_email_configuration_defaults($enabled) { // Enable post by email $enabled = true; return $enabled; } // Add the filter add_filter("enable_post_by_email_configuration", "weplugins_modify_enable_post_by_email_configuration_defaults", 10, 1);
Example 2: Disabling Post by Email
In this example, we use the enable_post_by_email_configuration filter to disable the post-by-email functionality.
function weplugins_disable_post_by_email($enabled) { // Disable post by email $enabled = false; return $enabled; } // Add the filter add_filter("enable_post_by_email_configuration", "weplugins_disable_post_by_email", 10, 1);
Example 3: Conditional Enabling Based on User Role
Here, we conditionally enable the post-by-email feature based on the user role.
function weplugins_conditional_post_by_email($enabled) { if ( current_user_can('administrator') ) { // Enable post by email for administrators $enabled = true; } else { // Disable for other roles $enabled = false; } return $enabled; } // Add the filter add_filter("enable_post_by_email_configuration", "weplugins_conditional_post_by_email", 10, 1);
To remove a registered hook, you can use the remove_filter function. Here is an example:
remove_filter("enable_post_by_email_configuration", "weplugins_modify_enable_post_by_email_configuration_defaults", 10, 1);
