Filters the action links displayed under each user in the Network Admin Users list table.
To use ms_user_row_actions 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_ms_user_row_actions_defaults which takes 2 parameters and we registered using add_filter. The first parameter ms_user_row_actions is the name of the hook, the second parameter weplugins_modify_ms_user_row_actions_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 ms_user_row_actions filter.
Below are the 2 parameters required to use this hook.
Below is an example of how you can use this hook.
function weplugins_modify_ms_user_row_actions_defaults($actions, $user) {
// Update the $actions variable according to your website requirements and return this variable.
// You can modify the $actions variable conditionally too if you want.
return $actions;
}
// Add the filter
add_filter("ms_user_row_actions", "weplugins_modify_ms_user_row_actions_defaults", 10, 2);
In this example, we add a custom action to the user row actions.
function weplugins_add_custom_ms_user_row_action($actions, $user) {
// Add a custom action link
$actions['custom_action'] = '<a href="#">Custom Action</a>';
return $actions;
}
// Add the filter
add_filter("ms_user_row_actions", "weplugins_add_custom_ms_user_row_action", 10, 2);
In this example, we modify the actions conditionally based on user’s role.
function weplugins_conditional_ms_user_row_action($actions, $user) {
// Check if the user has a specific role
if (in_array('administrator', $user->roles)) {
$actions['admin_action'] = '<a href="#">Admin Action</a>';
}
return $actions;
}
// Add the filter
add_filter("ms_user_row_actions", "weplugins_conditional_ms_user_row_action", 10, 2);
To remove a hook callback, use the example below.
remove_filter("ms_user_row_actions", "weplugins_modify_ms_user_row_actions_defaults", 10, 2);
Please make sure to provide the same callback function name, priority, and number of arguments while removing the hook callback.
