Developer Hooks & Filters

Filters for licensing, shortcode and rendered-site behavior.

v0.20.0 exposes filters that are especially useful for site-specific integrations.

ist_scan_shortcode

Controls whether a discovered shortcode should be executed by the scanner.

Conceptual example:

add_filter( 'ist_scan_shortcode', function ( $allowed, $tag, $full_shortcode, $post_id, $origin ) {
    if ( 'dangerous_action_shortcode' === $tag ) {
        return false;
    }
    return $allowed;
}, 10, 5 );

Use this when a shortcode performs an action or depends on a context that should not run during scanning.

ist_rendered_site_scan_request_args

Filters the WordPress HTTP request arguments used by the automatic rendered-site crawler.

add_filter( 'ist_rendered_site_scan_request_args', function ( $args, $url, $post_id ) {
    // Site-specific request customization.
    return $args;
}, 10, 3 );

ist_rendered_site_scan_url

Allows a site integration to alter the URL the rendered scanner requests for a specific content object.

ist_rendered_site_scan_max_segments_per_object

Controls the maximum rendered-discovery segments stored for one content object. The built-in default is designed to prevent pathological pages from creating an unbounded number of segments.
