Where Do I Find a Hook in WooCommerce?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 11:02 pm

There are a few places you can check to see if a particular WooCommerce hook exists. The first is the official documentation.

If you go to the hooks reference page, you can browse through the available hooks by category, see what hooked functions are called, and view what priority they have. You can also search for specific hooks.

If you’re not finding what you’re looking for in the documentation, another place to look is on GitHub. The WooCommerce repository has all of the code for the plugin, including comments with information about hooks.

If you go to the template loader file, for example, and scroll down to line 156, you can see that there is a hook called wc_get_template_part. This hook is called when a template part is loaded.

PRO TIP: If you are looking for a hook in WooCommerce, be sure to check the documentation first. Many hooks are undocumented and can be difficult to find. Also, be aware that some hooks may be deprecated and no longer work.

If you still can’t find what you’re looking for, another option is to search through the code of other plugins and themes that are available for WooCommerce. Many times, these will use hooks in their code that are not well documented or listed anywhere.

A good place to start looking is the WordPress plugin directory. You can also look for WooCommerce-specific plugins and themes on sites like WooThemes.

Conclusion:

In conclusion, there are a few different places you can check to see if a particular WooCommerce hook exists: the official documentation, GitHub, and other plugins and themes. If you still can’t find what you’re looking for, try searching through the code of other plugins and themes.
