Is there a way to change the default media manager tab? I have managed to remove everything that I didn’t want to show in media manager, using the instructions from the first post here Add a menu item to WordPress 3.5 Media Manager. I also have created a custom tab.
The problem is that when I click the Add Media button in posts, it sends me to the Media Library by default, which I have disabled.
Is it possible to set the default screen from Media Library (which I have disabled) to the Insert from URL? So every time i click the Add Media I will get this screen:
(the one from Insert from URL).
My coding skills are nearly zero… and the closest solution to my problem I believe it’s this Changing the media library default tab, but it doesn’t work…
Try this:
