How to use dashboard_secondary_feed filter in WordPress

Example 1: Modifying the Feed URL

Here’s a basic example of how you can change the URL of the secondary feed using this filter. This can be quite useful if you want to display custom content in your dashboard widget.

    function weplugins_modify_dashboard_secondary_feed($url) { 
        // Update the $url variable to your desired feed URL
        return $url; 
    }
    // add the filter
    add_filter("dashboard_secondary_feed", "weplugins_modify_dashboard_secondary_feed", 10, 1);
    

Example 2: Conditional URL Modification

Sometimes, you might want to modify the URL based on certain conditions. Here’s how you can achieve that.

    function weplugins_conditional_dashboard_feed($url) { 
        if (is_user_logged_in()) {
            // Modify URL for logged in users
            $url = 'https://mycustomfeed.com/loggedin';
        }
        return $url; 
    }
    // add the filter
    add_filter("dashboard_secondary_feed", "weplugins_conditional_dashboard_feed", 10, 1);
    

Example 3: Removing the Filter

If you need to remove a filter callback, this is how you can do it. Ensure that you provide the same callback function name, priority, and number of arguments.

    remove_filter("dashboard_secondary_feed", "weplugins_modify_dashboard_secondary_feed", 10, 1);
