in_admin_footer action

Fires after the opening tag for the admin footer.

To use in_admin_footer 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 weplugins_execute_on_in_admin_footer_event and we registered it using add_action. The first parameter in_admin_footer is the name of the hook, the second parameter weplugins_execute_on_in_admin_footer_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 in_admin_footer action.

Parameters

  • No parameters

Live Example

do_action( 'in_admin_footer' )

Below is an example of how you can use this hook.

Example 1: Basic Hook Usage

This example shows the basic usage of the in_admin_footer action hook.

    function weplugins_execute_on_in_admin_footer_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( "in_admin_footer", "weplugins_execute_on_in_admin_footer_event");
    

To remove a hook callback, use the example below.

Example 2: Removing a Hook

This example demonstrates how to remove an action hook in WordPress.

remove_action( "in_admin_footer", "weplugins_execute_on_in_admin_footer_event");

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

Example 3: Hook with Priority

This example shows how to add an action hook with a specific priority.

    function weplugins_execute_on_in_admin_footer_event_priority(){
        // This code will be executed with a priority of 20
    }
    // add the action with priority
    add_action( "in_admin_footer", "weplugins_execute_on_in_admin_footer_event_priority", 20);
