Show Hooks

A sequential and visual representation of WordPress action and filter hooks. Up until now, the way theme and plugin developers find where to hook into with their add_action() and add_filter() functions is either to search through the WordPress codebase or find a reference to the hook in the codex.
What Show Hooks does is give you a simpler way to see these hooks by displaying them in-line on the page that you are on. All that’s left to do then is copy the hook you need, and paste it into your add_action and add_filter functions like this:
add_action( ‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘my_enqueue_scripts_action’ );
add_filter( ‘the_title’, ‘my_the_title_filter’ );
I made this plugin so I could find WordPress hooks quicker and I use it all the time, so I thought I’d share it and see if it could help others.
Enjoy!
