Limit the Embed Providers in the Inserter
Hides the long list of embed blocks (TikTok, Reddit, Kickstarter and dozens more) from the inserter, keeping only the providers you actually use.
Opens WPIDE on
Code
// Embed providers to keep in the inserter.
$wpide_kept_embeds = array( 'youtube', 'vimeo', 'twitter', 'spotify' );
add_action( 'enqueue_block_editor_assets', function () use ( $wpide_kept_embeds ) {
wp_add_inline_script(
'wp-blocks',
'wp.domReady(function(){(window._wpLoadBlockEditor||Promise.resolve()).then(function(){var keep=' . wp_json_encode( array_values( $wpide_kept_embeds ) ) . ';(wp.blocks.getBlockVariations("core/embed")||[]).forEach(function(variation){if(keep.indexOf(variation.name)===-1){wp.blocks.unregisterBlockVariation("core/embed",variation.name);}});});});'
);
} );Notes
Pasting a URL from a hidden provider still embeds it. Provider names are lowercase, such as youtube, vimeo, twitter, spotify or soundcloud.
