networks_clauses filter
Filters the network query clauses.
To use the `networks_clauses` 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_networks_clauses_defaults` which takes 2 parameters and we registered using `add_filter`. The first parameter `networks_clauses` is the name of the hook, the second parameter `weplugins_modify_networks_clauses_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 the `networks_clauses` filter.
Parameters
Live Example
Example 1: Basic Usage
This example demonstrates how to modify the network clauses.
function weplugins_modify_networks_clauses_defaults($clauses, $query) {
// Update the $clauses variable according to your website requirements and return this variable.
return $clauses;
}
// add the filter
add_filter("networks_clauses", "weplugins_modify_networks_clauses_defaults", 10, 2);
Example 2: Conditional Modification
In this example, the clauses are modified conditionally based on a specific query parameter.
function weplugins_modify_networks_clauses_conditionally($clauses, $query) {
if ($query->get('some_parameter')) {
// Modify $clauses based on condition
}
return $clauses;
}
// add the filter
add_filter("networks_clauses", "weplugins_modify_networks_clauses_conditionally", 10, 2);
Example 3: Removing the Hook
To remove a hook callback, use the example below.
remove_filter("networks_clauses", "weplugins_modify_networks_clauses_defaults", 10, 2);
Please make sure to provide the same callback function name, priority, and number of arguments while removing the hook callback.
