Accessing array-defined action

    Hello,
    In a plugin file there is an action defined as follows. It contains a parameter of type array as you can see:

    do_action('vse_da_update',$id,$data[$rkey],$status);

    I’m trying to handle this by reaching it in function.php. However, I cannot reach it. am i making a mistake? Is the parameter as an array being accessed in a different way?

    add_action('vse_da_update', 'new_vse_da_update', 10, 2);
function new_vse_da_update ($id, $data){
$new_value[$id] = $data[$rkey];
}

  • This just means that the action is passing whatever value is inside $data[$rkey] as a variable. It will be a normal single variable in the callback function that you can access, with whatever name you choose:

    add_action('vse_da_update', 'new_vse_da_update', 10, 2);
function new_vse_da_update ($id, $data){
	$new_value[$id] = $data;
}

    This is the same as if you pass a value to a function:

    funtion do_something( $value ) {
	echo $value;
}

$data = [
	'key' => 'value',
];

do_something( $data['key'] ); // 'value'
