Filter type of WebMentions to be allowed

[edent]

As discussed in pfefferle/wordpress-webmention#343 and snarfed/bridgy#1347 - I only want to see replies and mentions of my blog posts, I don't want likes, retweets, boosts, reactjis etc.

This can be set in

wordpress-semantic-linkbacks/includes/class-linkbacks-handler.php

Line 173 in a164a3d

public static function enhance( $commentdata, $comment = array(), $commentarr = array() ) {

Which is called from

wordpress-semantic-linkbacks/includes/class-linkbacks-handler.php

Line 21 in a164a3d

add_filter( 'preprocess_comment', array( 'Linkbacks_Handler', 'enhance' ), 0, 1 );

Once the comment has been pre-processed, but before it is returned, the following can be added to enhance():

if ( isset( $commentdata['comment_meta']['semantic_linkbacks_type'] ) ) {
	$comment_type = $commentdata['comment_meta']['semantic_linkbacks_type'];

	if ( "mention" == $comment_type || "reply" == $comment_type ) {
		//  Do nothing
	} else {
		error_log("Deleting a " . $comment_type);
		die("Comment not enhanced");
	}	
}

Because the function dies, the comment is never enhanced and doesn't appear in the moderation queue.

This is a quick hack. For production, it would probably need a UI to let users specify what sort of semantic linkbacks they're interested in.
