    WordPress theme developers should use `wp_head()`, `wp_body_open()` and `wp_footer()` functions in their themes (read this for more information).

    The new WordPress theme structure:

    <html>
  <head>

    ..
    ..

    <?php wp_head(); ?>

  </head>
  <body>

    <?php wp_body_open(); ?>

    ..
    ..

    <?php wp_footer(); ?>

  </body>
</html>

    I Think This is the best way for add wp_body_open(); function for backwards compatibility

    Step 1 : Checked if function is exits, if not exits then make a function called wp_body_open();

    Example:

    if ( ! function_exists( 'wp_body_open' ) ) {
    function wp_body_open() {
        do_action( 'wp_body_open' );
    }
}

    Then put the function after the body tag.

    Example:

    <html>
  <head>
 
    ..
    ..
 
    <?php wp_head(); ?>
 
  </head>
  <body>
 
    <?php wp_body_open(); ?>
 
    ..
    ..
 
    <?php wp_footer(); ?>
 
  </body>
</html>

    Custom Theme Hooks

    Many themes use their own custom actions at the beginning of body tag. They should consider migrating to the core wp_body_open action.

    For backwards compatibility, when injecting custom code, theme developers can use conditional logic to hook to the right action

    function custom_code() {
    return '<!-- some code -->';
}

if ( did_action( 'wp_body_open' ) ) {
    add_action( 'wp_body_open', 'custom_code' );
} else {
    add_action( 'custom_theme_hook', 'custom_code' );
}
