admin_head-(plugin_page) with custom post type

    Hello!

    I’m trying to insert some content in <head> on a custom post type admin page (named short-facts).

    It works using the admin_head hook. But I want to target the specific page using admin_head-(plugin_page). Like this:

    function some_css(){
echo '<style type="text/css">...</style>';
}
add_action('admin_head-short-facts', 'some_css');

    Can’t get it to work though. The example on https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Plugin_API/Action_Reference/admin_head-%28plugin_page%29 is using the add_options_page function for doing this. Here I’m just having a regular register_post_type which means that I don’t have to add any pages “manually”.

    Is it possible to solve? Should I do this with some kind of filter instead?

    Thanks!

  • Assuming you want to target the page that lists the posts for that type, i’d suggest the following..

    add_action( 'admin_head-edit.php', 'yourfunction' );
function yourfunction() {

	// Bring the post type global into scope
	global $post_type;

	// If the current post type doesn't match, return, ie. end execution here
	if( 'your-post-type-name-here' != $post_type )
		return;

	// Else we reach this point and do whatever
	?>
	<style type="text/css"></style>
	<?php
}

    Or similarly if you want to cover every page for that post type, you can do it this way..

    add_action( 'admin_head', 'yourfunction' );
function yourfunction() {

	// Bring the post type global into scope
	global $post_type;

	// If the current post type doesn't match, return, ie. end execution here
	if( 'your-post-type-name-here' != $post_type )
		return;

	// Else we reach this point and do whatever
	?>
	<style type="text/css"></style>
	<?php
}

    Which then covers the post listing and the create new / edit pages to.
