[Plugin: WP Maintenance Mode] Where to place hook script

  • Where can I place the hook scripts such that they would not be overwritten by a plugin update? From your example:

    function add_my_link() {
    echo '<a href="https://mylink.com/">My Link</a>
}
add_action( 'wm_footer', 'add_my_link' )

    Usually I would place such a thing in my theme’s functions.php, but I wasn’t sure that this was the correct location for this particular case.

    Thanks!

  • Hi usableweb,

    Your theme’s function.php is in fact the correct place to place hooks. ??

    Hi usableweb,

    Your theme’s function.php is in fact the correct place and safest place to apply. The concern with doing that, is that if a theme receives an update it’s files may be replaced. Although, in that case you would make a child theme.
