How to use recovery_email_debug_info filter in WordPress

Hey there! If you’re diving into WordPress development, you’ve probably stumbled upon hooks. They’re awesome, right? Today, let’s chat about one particular filter hook: recovery_email_debug_info. This little gem allows you to tweak the debug info included in those pesky fatal error protection emails. Whether you’re popping this into your theme’s functions.php or creating a nifty custom plugin, it’s a handy tool to have in your kit. At WePlugins, we love using custom plugins because it keeps things neat and tidy, even when your theme gets an update.

Example 1: Modifying the Debug Info

Let’s start with a basic example. Suppose you want to tailor the debug information in the recovery email. Here’s how you can modify the $message array:

    function weplugins_modify_recovery_email_debug_info($message) { 
        // Customize the $message array as per your needs.
        return $message; 
    }
    // Add the filter
    add_filter("recovery_email_debug_info", "weplugins_modify_recovery_email_debug_info", 10, 1);
    

Example 2: Conditional Modifications

Sometimes, you might want to modify the debug info based on certain conditions. Here’s how you can do that:

    function weplugins_conditional_recovery_email_debug_info($message) { 
        if (some_condition()) {
            // Modify the $message array based on a condition.
        }
        return $message; 
    }
    // Add the filter
    add_filter("recovery_email_debug_info", "weplugins_conditional_recovery_email_debug_info", 10, 1);
    

Example 3: Removing the Hook

And of course, if you ever need to unregister this filter, here’s how you can remove it:

    // Remove the filter
    remove_filter("recovery_email_debug_info", "weplugins_modify_recovery_email_debug_info", 10, 1);
    

Remember to use the same callback function, priority, and number of arguments when removing a filter.
