Languages: English • (Add your language)

This article on the Plugin Hooks available in Version 2.1 of WordPress has now been split into two sections:

• Plugin API/Filter Reference - reference list of all of the Filter Hooks in WordPress
• Plugin API/Action Reference - reference list of all of the Action Hooks in WordPress

To learn more about what Filter and Action Hooks are, see Plugin API. For information about hooks in previous versions of WordPress, see Plugin API/Hooks 2.0.x.

Terminology

In WordPress Codex and source code, the terms "actions/filters", "action/filter hooks", "hooks", "action/filter functions" and "hooked functions" are sometimes used ambiguously, see the Terminology Confusion note.
