Hi Ryaan,
Hooks in WordPress are a way for developers to execute code at specific points in the WordPress core, themes, and plugins without modifying the original code, which allows them to modify, customize, or extend the functionality of WordPress.
WordPress hooks are classified into two types:- Actions: The actions hook allows developers to execute code at specific points in WordPress, such as before or after a post has been published. You can use actions to add new content, modify existing content, or perform any other task at a specific time. Examples of actions include "wp_head" and "wp_footer".
- Filters: A filter is a hook that allows developers to modify data while it is being processed by WordPress. Filters can be used to change the content of posts, pages, or any other data that is being processed by WordPress.
