Zakra provides you with various hooks. To see all of them, you can ** visit here**.
** Using Action hook:**
add_action( 'hook_name', 'function_to_add' ); function function_to_add() { //Your code goes here }
In Zakra, you can use zakra_action_before_content hook to add your custom code just before the main content or body starts.
add_action( 'zakra_action_before_content', 'function_to_add' ); function function_to_add() { //Your code goes here }
Using Filter hook
add_filter( 'zakra_action_before_content', 'function_to_add' ); function function_to_add() { //Your code goes here }

|| All PHP code should be added via a child theme’s functions.php file. Refer to ** Child Theme** article to learn about child themes.
Modify theme functionality using Action Hook #
- do_action: Execute functions hooked on a specific action hook.
You only need to use these two functions:
- add_action: Attach function to a specific hook.
- remove_action: Removes function attached to a specific hook.
**Note: do_action is already added to the theme and this function is automatically triggered whenever any function is hooked using add_action. You need to use add_action to add your code and remove_action to remove any functionality. **
