load-{$page_hook} WordPress Action Hook

The load-$page_hook action hook is called when a particular page is loaded in the WordPress admin. This hook can be used to load custom scripts or styles on a specific page, or to perform any other actions that need to happen when that page is loaded.

do_action( "load-{$page_hook}" ) #

Fires before a particular screen is loaded.


Description

The load-* hook fires in a number of contexts. This hook is for plugin screens where a callback is provided when the screen is registered.

The dynamic portion of the hook name, $page_hook, refers to a mixture of plugin page information including:

  1. The page type. If the plugin page is registered as a submenu page, such as for Settings, the page type would be ‘settings’. Otherwise the type is ‘toplevel’.
  2. A separator of ‘_page_’.
  3. The plugin basename minus the file extension.

Together, the three parts form the $page_hook. Citing the example above, the hook name used would be ‘load-settings_page_pluginbasename’.
