Pass post type to count_user_posts()

[Caspie]

Add $post_type argument to count_user_posts(). Defaults to 'post', as it is hard-coded now.

[kawauso]

If we're doing that, should it be passed to the filter as well?

[Caspie]

also pass to filter

Patch is blowing up

[engelen]

get-user-post-count-post-type.21364.diff adds an argument for the post type for both count_user_posts and get_the_author_posts.

Hi,

I've just tested this patch - works as intended.

[DrewAPicture]

+ unit test

[DrewAPicture]

21364.diff​ adds a unit test. I also removed the changes to get_the_author_posts() as that falls out of the scope of this ticket.

Hi Guys

Should allow an array of post type to get passed in?

This is not a bad idea, but it's going to need modifications to the current patch that are non-trivial. I'd suggest that we go with what we've currently got for 4.1, and you should feel free to open another ticket if you'd like support for multiple post types.

Props Caspie, engelen, DrewAPicture.
Fixes #21364.

[pavelevap]

There should be @since 4.1.0?

In 30328:

Correct @since tag in count_user_posts() docs.

Props pavelevap, DrewAPicture.
See #21364.
