README

Disable Media Pages is an Acorn package for WordPress that disables media attachment pages and generates unique UUID's for each media attachment's post_name to prevent clashing.

WordPress 6.4 will bring the ability to "disable" attachment pages but attachments will still generate unnecessary slugs based on the uploaded media's filename.

Features

Replaces media attachment post_name slugs with randomly generated UUID's with Str::uuid().
Replaces the "View" media URL with a direct link to the media.
404's any requests made to media attachment page slugs.
Easily convert/revert existing media page slugs using Acorn's CLI.

Requirements

PHP >= 8.1
Acorn >= 3.0

Installation

Install via Composer:

$ composer require log1x/acorn-disable-media-pages

Usage

Getting Started

This package has no configuration and will start working once installed.

Existing Media

To convert existing media, simply use the following Acorn command:

$ wp acorn media:generate-slugs

Reverting Slugs

Warning

Reverting your attachment post_name slugs may not restore them 1:1 to what they were prior to conversion.

This command simply re-generates the slugs for each media attachment based on the existing post_title falling back to the filename if the existing post_title is empty.

$ wp acorn media:generate-slugs --revert
