You should be able to use any of the metabox hooks to do what you want:
do_action( 'add_meta_boxes', self::$post_type, $post );
do_action( 'add_meta_boxes_' . self::$post_type, $post );
do_action( 'do_meta_boxes', self::$post_type, 'normal', $post );
do_action( 'do_meta_boxes', self::$post_type, 'side', $post );
But, in your hook, you would check to see if you're on the frontend.
eg.
add_action( 'add_meta_boxes_event', function( $post ) {
// Check to see if we're in the admin area. If so, bail.
if ( defined( 'WP_NETWORK_ADMIN' ) ) { return; }
// We're on the frontend. Do what you need to do here.
} );
Let me know if that works or not.
Nice one @r-a-y that works just fine. Thanks!
@r-a-y This is a bit of an oddity - I can't seem to find an appropriate hook that tells me that I'm on a BPEO edit screen. Please ignore this PR if there's a hook that I've overlooked.
FWIW, the reason for introducing this hook (or a hook like it) is that (due to a limitation in CiviCRM) I use Radio Buttons for Taxonomies to force events to have only a single category assigned to them. RBfT transforms the Category metabox by unhooking the built-in one and replacing it with an amended version, but does so via the
admin_menu
hook - which, of course, does not fire on the front end. The relevant RBfT method can be called directly, but it seems overkill to do so unless it's needed.
