delete_{$meta_type}_metadata_by_mid WordPress Filter Hook

The delete_{$meta_type}_metadata_by_mid hook is called when deleting metadata by meta ID. This hook can be used to perform cleanup when metadata is deleted. For example, if you are storing metadata in a custom table, you can use this hook to delete the corresponding data from your table.

apply_filters( "delete_{$meta_type}_metadata_by_mid", null|bool $delete, int $meta_id ) #

Short-circuits deleting metadata of a specific type by meta ID.


Description

The dynamic portion of the hook name, $meta_type, refers to the meta object type (post, comment, term, user, or any other type with an associated meta table). Returning a non-null value will effectively short-circuit the function.

Possible hook names include:

  • delete_post_metadata_by_mid
  • delete_comment_metadata_by_mid
  • delete_term_metadata_by_mid
  • delete_user_metadata_by_mid
