`\CoBlocks_Post_Meta::auth_callback()` may be redundant.
-
\CoBlocks_Post_Meta::auth_callback()
may be redundant.\register_meta()
adds$auth_callback
as"auth_{$object_type}_meta_{$meta_key}"
filter.- REST Meta controller (
\WP_REST_Meta_Fields
class) checks"edit_{$meta_type}_meta"
capability. In this case$meta_type
is'post'
. \map_meta_cap()
maps"edit_{$meta_type}_meta"
to"edit_{$object_type}"
and call$auth_callback
as"auth_{$object_type}_meta_{$meta_key}"
filter. In this case$object_type
is'post'
.
The
'edit_posts'
check in\CoBlocks_Post_Meta::auth_callback()
is considered redundant since'edit_post'
is checked.And
'edit_posts'
may not work for custom post types.current_user_can( get_post_type_object( $post_id )->cap->edit_posts )
should be used, see\get_post_type_capabilities()
.
Alternatively, you may limit post meta registration to just the post using\register_post_meta()
.The WordPress capability system is very arcane…
