HGW Better internal link search for Block editor improves the default internal link search inside the block editor by adding a post type or category selector to the link popup.
This allows editors to narrow down search results to specific post types such as Posts, Pages, or custom post types.
Features
- Adds a clean “post type and category filter” dropdown above Block editor link search results.
- Works with all REST-visible and publicly queryable post types.
- No database queries or custom endpoints — fully uses WordPress core APIs.
- Loads only inside the editor, never on the front-end.
- Lightweight, fast, and compatible with all major themes and plugins.

常見問題集
-
Does this plugin affect front-end performance?
-
No. It only loads within the WordPress block editor (
enqueue_block_editor_assets) and has zero effect on the front-end. -
Does it support custom post types?
-
Yes. Any registered post type that is viewable and exposed through the REST API will automatically appear in the list.
-
Does it support taxonomies like category or product_cat?
-
Yes. Any public REST-enabled taxonomy can be enabled from the plugin settings.
-
Can I choose which post types/taxonomies to include?
-
Yes. Visit Settings HGW Internal Link Filter to customize the options.
-
Is this compatible with WooCommerce, EDD or custom builders?
-
Yes, as long as they use Block editor native LinkControl component and it detects and supports
product,download, and related taxonomies automatically.
