[Plugin: Co-Authors Plus] Feature: Iterator Filter

  • Co-authors-plus is a great plugin! Thanks for all the hard work.

    I would like to suggest one feature, a filter to the iterator. Currently I apply WP’s ‘the_author’ filter, but any filter hook would be very convenient.

    Sounds reasonable ?? Want to prepare a pull request for this on Github?

    My preference would be to apply a filter called ‘the_coauthor’, and then you can hook whatever you’d like onto that.

    Also, make sure your code actually executes (e.g. “$i-position” looks broken), and you can decrement with $i->position– or similar.

    Lastly, if you could prepare an example use case when you submit your pull request so I can properly test, that’d be wonderful.
