post_deleted_messages filter

[jgadbois]

It would be nice to be able to updated post deleted messages like you can through the post_updated_messages filter.

You mean "Item moved to the Trash" and similar strings in wp-admin/edit.php?

[jgadbois]

Yes, exactly

[DrewAPicture]

+1 to this. Can currently set 'Custom field deleted' but not 'Post moved to the trash.'

Patch which adds a bulk_post_updated_messages filter. No new strings introduced.

Plugin usage:

function bulk_foo_updated_messages( $messages, $counts ) {
	$messages['foo'] = array(
		0 => '',
		1 => _n( '%s foo updated.', '%s foos updated.', $counts[1], 'foo' ),
		2 => _n( '%s foo not updated, somebody is editing it.', '%s foos not updated, somebody is editing them.', $counts[2], 'foo' ),
		3 => _n( 'Foo permanently deleted.', '%s foos permanently deleted.', $counts[3], 'foo' ),
		4 => _n( 'Foo moved to the Trash.', '%s foos moved to the Trash.', $counts[4], 'foo' ),
		5 => _n( 'Foo restored from the Trash.', '%s foos restored from the Trash.', $counts[5], 'foo' ),
	);
	return $messages;
}
add_filter( 'bulk_post_updated_messages', 'bulk_foo_updated_messages', 10, 2 );

About the patch, the fallback to post is wrong. This should be to the current messages since someone can remove post from the array.

Also ticket #20898 is not a duplicate ticket but related. It's only duplicated when the current patch will be committed.

Refreshed patch

Patch refreshed.

18710.3.diff​ adds docs, avoids magic numbers, and tries to simplify the logic.

The post_updated_messages filter uses 1-10 to correspond to actual ?message=X arguments. I figured this filter could benefit from a bit more structure.
