#11078 closed enhancement (invalid)

Media Library tab in post editor should have "Unattached" and "Trash" filter options

Description

The master Media Library admin page has options for viewing attachments based on their status, not just type—but the post editor media management only allows sorting based on type.

Having at least the ability to filter for unattached media items would be useful when editing a post. Occasionally users could have older media that is not yet attached to a post and could get buried in the media pages by newer items.

  • Keywords needs-patch added; media gallery filter removed
  • Milestone changed from 3.0 to Future Release

This would at least need a patch. Standard Media library has the unattached filter.

To debug, a direct link is:
wp-admin/media-upload.php?type=image&tab=library&post_id=1

Obsolete through media revamp in 3.5.
