get_comment_author_url_link filter
Filters the comment author’s returned URL link.
To use get_comment_author_url_link filter, first you have to register it using add_filter. 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 weplugins_modify_get_comment_author_url_link_defaults which takes 1 parameter and we registered using add_filter. The first parameter get_comment_author_url_link is the name of the hook, the second parameter weplugins_modify_get_comment_author_url_link_defaults 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_filter to remove get_comment_author_url_link filter.
Parameters
- $return : (string) The HTML-formatted comment author URL link.
Below the 1 parameter is required to use this hook.
Live Examples
Example 1: Basic Usage
Below is an example of how you can use this hook.
function weplugins_modify_get_comment_author_url_link_defaults($return) { // Update the $return variable according to your website requirements and return this variable. You can modify the $return variable conditionally too if you want. return $return; } // add the filter add_filter("get_comment_author_url_link", "weplugins_modify_get_comment_author_url_link_defaults", 10, 1);
Example 2: Conditional Modification
This example demonstrates how to modify the URL link conditionally.
function weplugins_modify_get_comment_author_url_link_conditionally($return) { if (is_user_logged_in()) { $return = 'https://weplugins.com/user-profile'; } return $return; } // add the filter add_filter("get_comment_author_url_link", "weplugins_modify_get_comment_author_url_link_conditionally", 10, 1);
Example 3: Removing the Hook
To remove a hook callback, use the example below.
// remove the filter remove_filter("get_comment_author_url_link", "weplugins_modify_get_comment_author_url_link_defaults", 10, 1);
Please make sure to provide the same callback function name, priority, and number of arguments while removing the hook callback.
