the_post WordPress Action Hook
The the_post hook is one of the most important hooks in WordPress. It is called after the post content has been retrieved from the database and is used to setup the post data before it is displayed on the screen. This hook is used by many plugins and themes to setup their own data structures and display settings for the post.
do_action_ref_array( 'the_post', WP_Post $post , WP_Query $query ) #
Fires once the post data has been set up.
Parameters
More Information
The ‘the_post’ action hook allows developers to modify the post object immediately after being queried and setup.
The post object is passed to this hook by reference so there is no need to return a value.
Example
function my_the_post_action( $post_object ) { // modify post object here } add_action( 'the_post', 'my_the_post_action' );
