SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

In Sage/Acorn WordPress projects, developers often struggle to understand, organize, and debug the WordPress hooks lifecycle—knowing when to use actions vs filters, the execution order, and where to register hooks in a scalable provider-based architecture.

Core Features & Use Cases

Clear guidance on actions vs filters, their differences, and how to pair them with service providers.
Step-by-step mapping of the WordPress boot sequence to hook registrations, ensuring hooks fire at the correct stage.
Best-practice patterns for placing hook registrations in the ServiceProvider boot() method and using dependency injection inside callbacks.
Practical troubleshooting guidance for common hook timing issues, priorities, and argument counts.

Quick Start

Boot the Sage app and register common WordPress hooks in AppServiceProvider to observe the execution order.

FAQPage Schema

What's the difference between WordPress actions and filters in a Sage theme?▼

WordPress actions execute custom logic at specific lifecycle points, while filters modify and return data; in Sage, both are organized within service providers to maintain a scalable boot sequence.

How do I register WordPress hooks in a Sage ServiceProvider boot method?▼

Register WordPress hooks inside the ServiceProvider boot() method by attaching actions or filters, using dependency injection to resolve needed services directly within the callback functions.

Why are my WordPress hooks firing in the wrong order in Sage?▼

Hook timing issues in Sage usually stem from registering outside the correct boot sequence stage or mismatched priorities; mapping registrations to the provider boot order ensures hooks fire correctly.

Can I use dependency injection inside WordPress hook callbacks in Acorn?▼

Yes, Sage's Acorn service providers support dependency injection within hook callbacks, allowing you to resolve services from the container directly when registering actions or filters in the boot method.

When should I use a ServiceProvider versus a functions file for WordPress hooks in Sage?▼

Use Sage service providers for hook registration to leverage the structured boot sequence and dependency injection, whereas functions files lack this organized lifecycle management and scalable architecture.

Do I need to set priority and argument count when adding filters in Sage?▼

Setting priority and accepted arguments is necessary when adding filters in Sage to control execution order and ensure callbacks receive the correct parameter count during the WordPress boot sequence.
