Ever wanted to display a post attachment count in an admin column? This snippet will display the number of post attachments for each post in a custom admin column.
Instructions
All you have to do is add this code to your theme’s functions.php file or in a site-specific plugin:
add_filter('manage_posts_columns', 'posts_columns_attachment_count', 5);
add_action('manage_posts_custom_column', 'posts_custom_columns_attachment_count', 5, 2);
function posts_columns_attachment_count($defaults){
$defaults['wps_post_attachments'] = __('Attached');
return $defaults;
}
function posts_custom_columns_attachment_count($column_name, $id){
if($column_name === 'wps_post_attachments'){
$attachments = get_children(array('post_parent'=>$id));
$count = count($attachments);
if($count !=0){echo $count;}
}
}
