How to use admin_print_scripts-media-upload-popup action in WordPress

admin_print_scripts-media-upload-popup action

Fires when admin scripts enqueued for the legacy (pre-3.5.0) media upload popup are printed.

To use admin_print_scripts-media-upload-popup 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_print_scripts-media-upload-popup_event and we registered using add_action. The first parameter admin_print_scripts-media-upload-popup is the name of the hook, the second parameter execute_on_admin_print_scripts-media-upload-popup_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_print_scripts-media-upload-popup action.
