Overview
OceanWP Ocean Hooks gives you a way to add custom content throughout a site using the OceanWP theme's predefined hook locations. Add text, shortcodes, or PHP code through the hook interface, and use multiple pieces of content at the same location. This can help site owners and developers make theme customizations without modifying a child theme.
Control where content appears by choosing pages, posts, or taxonomies, and set visibility according to login status or user role. Hooks can also be created through the OceanWP Theme Panel's My Library, where page builder designs can be used as hook content. Predefined locations cover blog entries, single posts, product archives, and single product pages.
Features
- Add content at hooks: Place custom content in predefined OceanWP theme hook locations, without editing theme files.
- Use multiple pieces: Add different custom content to the same hook location to build layered page customizations.
- Embed shortcodes: Insert shortcodes in hook content to display dynamic content or extend site functionality.
- Run PHP snippets: Use the PHP editor to add PHP code snippets within hooks for custom site functions.
- Set visibility rules: Choose to show content based on login status or user role, so it appears to selected visitors.
- Target site content: Set hooks to appear on selected pages, posts, or custom taxonomies.
- Use builder designs: Create hooks through the OceanWP Theme Panel's My Library and use page builder designs as hook content.
