Usage
<?php add_action('admin_menu', 'function_name'); ?>
where "function_name" is the name of the function to be called.
Note : This action mustn't be placed in an admin_init action function.
Example
The example comes from the wpautop-control plugin. There, it is used to add an options page to the “Settings” menu.
add_action('admin_menu', 'wpautop_control_menu');
function wpautop_control_menu() {
add_submenu_page('options-general.php', 'wpautop-control', 'wpautop control', 'manage_options', 'wpautop-control-menu', 'wpautop_control_options');
}
