Action and Filter Hooks

The UCF WordPress Theme is designed to be overridable by child themes with pluggable functions and action and filter hooks.

In these docs, when we refer to these hooks, we're referring to the locations within the theme where action and filter functions can be registered. If you're looking for info on functions defined in the theme that are hooked into other action/filter hooks, see our Actions and Filters docs.

How to Use Hooks

Want to hook into an action or filter hook using a child theme? Use either add_action() or add_filter() in your functions.php file:

Add an Action

// Your child theme's functions.php

function my_custom_action_override( $some_var ) {
    // do something here...
}
add_action( 'ucfwp_some_action', 'my_custom_action_override', 10, 1 );

Add a Filter

// Your child theme's functions.php

function my_custom_filter_override( $retval ) {
    // Modify $retval somehow here...
    return $retval;
}
add_filter( 'ucfwp_some_filter', 'my_custom_filter_override', 10, 1 );
