More Information
The ajax_query_attachments_args
filter is used to filter the query that fetches the attachments displayed in the media library modal on the post edit screen.
The filter is used like this
add_filter( 'ajax_query_attachments_args', 'filter_function_name', 10, 1 )
Where filter_function_name()
is the function WordPress should call when the query is being modified. Note that the filter function must return the query array after it is finished processing, or the query will be empty and no attachments will be shown.
filter_function_name()
should be a unique function name. It cannot match any other function name already declared.
