Examples
Triggering the Function with ‘setup_theme’ Action
// Hooks the function to 'setup_theme' action
add_action('setup_theme', 'create_initial_theme_features');
This will trigger the create_initial_theme_features() function when the ‘setup_theme’ action is fired, setting up the initial theme features.
Checking if Function Exists Before Hooking
// Checks if the function exists before hooking
if (function_exists('create_initial_theme_features')) {
add_action('setup_theme', 'create_initial_theme_features');
}
This ensures that the function create_initial_theme_features() exists before it’s hooked to the ‘setup_theme’ action.
Removing the Function from the ‘setup_theme’ Action
// Removes the function from the 'setup_theme' action
remove_action('setup_theme', 'create_initial_theme_features');
This will remove the create_initial_theme_features() function from the ‘setup_theme’ action, preventing the initial theme features from being created when the theme is set up.
Prioritizing the Function in the ‘setup_theme’ Action
// Sets priority of the function in the 'setup_theme' action
add_action('setup_theme', 'create_initial_theme_features', 5);
This will ensure that the create_initial_theme_features() function is triggered earlier when the ‘setup_theme’ action is fired.
Delaying the Function in the ‘setup_theme’ Action
// Delays the function in the 'setup_theme' action
add_action('setup_theme', 'create_initial_theme_features', 15);
This will ensure that the create_initial_theme_features() function is triggered later when the ‘setup_theme’ action is fired.
