PostControl: Show only posts created by the current user

[mipon]

Hi,

Nice work.

Is it possible to limit the post list options of PostControl to posts created by the currently editing user?

@mipon You should be able to achieve that by passing only the current user's posts to PostControl like this:

const postType = "post";

const { id: authorId } = useSelect((select) => {
     return select("core").getCurrentUser();
}, []);

const myPosts = useSelect(
    (select) =>
        select("core").getEntityRecords("postType", postType, {
            per_page: -1,
            orderby: "title",
            order: "asc",
            status: "publish",
            author: authorId,
        }),
    [postType, authorId]
);

You can then simply pass myPosts to the current PostControl component and it should work. Note that if using a custom post type, you need to add author to the supports array when registering it.

I'll see about adding possibility to pass additional query arguments to our useAllPosts hook, so you could easily pass along the author id etc.
