How to use post_submitbox_minor_actions action in WordPress

This action hook fires after the Save Draft (or Save as Pending) and Preview (or Preview Changes) buttons in the Publish meta box. It’s a handy way to run custom functionality at a very specific point in the WordPress post editing process.

The hook consists of one parameter, $post, which refers to the current post object.

• $post: (WP_Post) WP_Post object for the current post.

Example 1: Running the Hook

To run the hook, simply use the following code snippet. It’s very straightforward!

    // run the action 
    do_action('weplugins_post_submitbox_minor_actions', $post); 
    

Example 2: Adding a Hook Callback

If you need to add a custom function to this hook, use the example below. This way, you can make your custom magic happen right at the right moment.

    // define the weplugins_post_submitbox_minor_actions callback 
    function weplugins_action_post_submitbox_minor_actions($post) { 
        // make action magic happen here... 
    }; 
             
    // add the action 
    add_action('weplugins_post_submitbox_minor_actions', 'weplugins_action_post_submitbox_minor_actions', 10, 1); 
    

Example 3: Removing a Hook Callback

Sometimes, you might want to remove a callback from this hook. Here’s how you can do that. It’s as simple as it gets!

    // remove the action 
    remove_action('weplugins_post_submitbox_minor_actions', 'weplugins_action_post_submitbox_minor_actions', 10, 1);
