For example, used with registering sidebars:
function mytheme_widgets_init() { register_sidebar( array( 'name' => __( 'Single Post Widgets', 'textdomain' ), 'id' => 'mytheme-single-post-widgets', 'description' => __( 'Widgets in this area will be shown under your single posts, before comments.', 'textdomain' ), 'before_widget' => '', 'after_widget' => '', 'before_title' => '', 'after_title' => '', ) ); } add_action( 'widgets_init', 'mytheme_widgets_init' );You should note that the
widgets_inithook is fired as part of theinithook – with a priority of 1.This means that it will fire before any code you may add to the
inithook with a default priority.Top ↑
Feedback
You will most probably run into this if you try to disable a widget registered by a plugin, if that plugin has added the widget using the widgets_init hook. You will need to add remove_widget($x,$y) through an init action with priority 0. Example
add_action( 'init', 'wpdocs_my_init', 0 ); function wpdocs_my_init() { $terms = get_terms( 'ts_product_brand', array( 'hide_empty' => true ) ); if ( ! is_array( $terms ) || count( $terms ) < 2 ) { remove_action( 'widgets_init', 'ts_product_filter_by_brand_load_widget' ); } }— By dpacks —
