apply_filters( 'pre_attachment_url_to_postid', int|null $post_id, string $url )

Since
6.7.0
Filters the attachment ID to allow short-circuit the function.

Description

Allows plugins to short-circuit attachment ID lookups. Plugins making use of this function should return:

  • 0 (integer) to indicate the attachment is not found,
  • attachment ID (integer) to indicate the attachment ID found,
  • null to indicate WordPress should proceed with the lookup.

Warning: The post ID may be null or zero, both of which cast to a boolean false. For information about casting to booleans see the https://www.php.net/manual/en/language.types.boolean.php PHP documentation.
Use the === operator for testing the post ID when developing filters using this hook.
