How to use activity_box_end action in WordPress

activity_box_end action

Prior to 3.8.0, the widget was named ‘Right Now’.

To use the activity_box_end action, first, you need to register it using add_action. You can write this code in the functions.php of your activated theme or in a custom WordPress Plugin.

At WePlugins, we always prefer to create a custom WordPress Plugin while using hooks so nothing breaks when you update your WordPress Theme in the future.

In the examples below, we have defined a function weplugins_execute_on_activity_box_end_event and registered it using add_action. The first parameter activity_box_end is the name of the hook, the second parameter weplugins_execute_on_activity_box_end_event is the name of the function which needs to be called, the third parameter is the priority of calling the hook if the same hook is used multiple times, and the last parameter is the number of arguments (if any) to be passed in the registered function.

Sometimes, you have to remove a registered hook, so you can use remove_action to remove the activity_box_end action.

Parameters

• No parameters

Live Example

do_action('activity_box_end')
    <p>Below is an example of how you can use this hook.</p>
    
    function weplugins_execute_on_activity_box_end_event(){
        // You can write code here to be executed when this action occurs in WordPress website according to your requirements.
    }
    // add the action
    add_action('activity_box_end', 'weplugins_execute_on_activity_box_end_event');
    

Example 1: Adding Custom Content

This example demonstrates how to add custom content when the activity_box_end action is executed.

    function weplugins_add_custom_content(){
        echo '<p>Custom content added by WePlugins.</p>';
    }
    add_action('activity_box_end', 'weplugins_add_custom_content');
    

Example 2: Logging Activity

Here, we log a message whenever the activity_box_end action is fired.

    function weplugins_log_activity(){
        error_log('Activity box ended.');
    }
    add_action('activity_box_end', 'weplugins_log_activity');
    

Example 3: Removing a Hook Callback

To remove a hook callback, use the example below.

    remove_action('activity_box_end', 'weplugins_execute_on_activity_box_end_event');
    

Please make sure to provide the same callback function name, priority, and number of arguments while removing the hook callback.
