admin_head_content_func action

The dynamic portion of the hook name, $content_func, refers to the form callback for the media upload type.

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

We at WePlugins 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 below live example, we have defined a function execute_on_admin_head_content_func_event and we registered using add_action. The first parameter admin_head_content_func is the name of the hook, the second parameter execute_on_admin_head_content_func_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 admin_head_content_func action.

Parameters

  • No parameters

Live Examples

Registering the Hook

Here’s how you can register the hook:

  function weplugins_execute_on_admin_head_content_func_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("admin_head_content_func", "weplugins_execute_on_admin_head_content_func_event");
  

Removing the Hook

To remove a hook callback, use the example below:

  remove_action("admin_head_content_func", "weplugins_execute_on_admin_head_content_func_event");
  

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

Dynamic Hook Usage

Below is an example of how you can dynamically use this hook:

  do_action("admin_head_{$content_func}");
