Proper way to use apply_filters() with class functions?
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}
I want to allow my user to override a function. It's a plugin. I believe that apply_filters() can be used for this. this can be overridden by add_filter().
I am confused about how to use it.
Say if i have a class like this
class Example{
public function hello(){
$title = the_title_attribute();
return $title;
}
}
What change should I make to allow that $title to be modified? where to place the apply filter?
Thanks

It depends on you where you want to call apply_filters()
.
It can be right when you defined the $title
:
$title = apply_filters( 'my_hook', the_title_attribute( 'echo=0' ) ); // set echo to false
return $title;
Or in the return
call:
$title = the_title_attribute( 'echo=0' ); // set echo to false
return apply_filters( 'my_hook', $title );
Then one can hook to the filter like so:
add_filter( 'my_hook', 'some_function' );
PS: As @birgire pointed, the_title_attribute()
will echo output, unless the echo
argument is set to false
. So be sure to use the function with the proper parameters.
