wp_head WordPress Action Hook
The wp_head hook is a hook that is called when the
section of a WordPress document is being generated. This hook can be used to add custom code to the section, such as CSS or JavaScript.do_action( 'wp_head' ) #
Prints scripts or data in the head tag on the front end.
More Information
The wp_head action hook is triggered within the <head></head>
section of the theme’s header.php
template by the wp_head()
function.
Although this is theme-dependent, it is one of the most essential theme hooks, so it is widely supported. See the Plugin API Hooks page on the Theme handbook for more information.
WordPress core uses this hook to perform many actions. Most of default actions into the 'wp-head' hook by WordPress core are set up in wp-includes/default-filters.php
. If you need to remove a default hook, this file will give you the priority for which to use to remove the hook.
