Hi all, I'm trying to create a very restricted kind of archive for showing news.
So far I could restrict the only custom block available and the PostType to a custom model:

[PageType(Title = "News Archive", UseBlocks = true, IsArchive = true)]
[BlockItemType(typeof(CustomBlocks.NewsBlock))]
[PageTypeArchiveItem(typeof(NewsPost))]
public class NewsArchive : Page<NewsArchive>
{
}

The NewsBlock has a PostLinkBlock inside and what I'd like is to filter the Posts inside the PostPicker to only the ones created in this Archive (NEWS LIST)

So the goal would be to not let the user choose the Site neither the Archive.
Any ideas on how to approach this?

First of all according to my needs I removed the buttons in the post picker under

core\Piranha.Manager\Areas\Manager\Shared\Partial\_PostPickerModal.cshtml

I think this is not strictly necessary to make it work, and probably a better option would be to show them or not according to a certain role or whatever, the future of my project will say.

The next and final step would be to parameterize or obtain the siteId and the archiveId that we want fixed for that specific Vue custom component in the select method, and then pass it to the postpicker.

It looks something like this:

Vue.compone…
