Let’s dive into the world of WordPress hooks, specifically the edited_term_taxonomies action. This hook fires right after a term’s children are reassigned a parent, making it pretty handy for developers. Now, you might be wondering how to start using this? Well, you first need to register it via add_action. You can do this in your theme’s functions.php file or, even better, create a custom WordPress plugin. This way, your changes remain intact even after a theme update.

Example 1: Basic Usage of edited_term_taxonomies

Here’s a basic example demonstrating how to use the edited_term_taxonomies hook.

    function weplugins_execute_on_edited_term_taxonomies_event($edit_tt_ids){
        // Your code to handle the action goes here.
    }
    // Add the action
    add_action( "edited_term_taxonomies", "weplugins_execute_on_edited_term_taxonomies_event", 10, 1 );
    

Example 2: Removing the Hook

Need to remove the hook? No worries, here’s how you can do that.

    // Remove the action
    remove_action( "edited_term_taxonomies", "weplugins_execute_on_edited_term_taxonomies_event", 10, 1 );
    

Just ensure that you provide the exact callback function name, priority, and the number of arguments.

Example 3: Custom Functionality

Let’s say you want to run a custom function whenever this action happens. Here’s how you can implement it.

    function weplugins_custom_functionality($edit_tt_ids){
        // Custom functionality goes here.
    }
    // Register the custom functionality with the hook
    add_action( "edited_term_taxonomies", "weplugins_custom_functionality", 10, 1 );
