Audit Trail vs Simply Show Hooks

Audit Trail is a plugin to keep track of what is going on inside your blog. It does this by recording certain actions (such as who logged in and when) and storing this information in the form of a log. Not only that but it records the full contents of posts (and pages) and allows you to restore a post to a previous version at any time. To summarise: Log of user actions inside your blog – useful for finding out who did what in a multi-user system Extensible, allowing other plugins the ability to add and display items in the Audit Trail Ability to track registered user page visits Fully localized Audit Trail is available in: English Estonian by Lembit Kivisik Belorussian by Marcis G Simplified Chinese by maoanyuan German by Andreas Beraz Japanese by Chestnut Romanian by Mikalay Lisica Lithuanian by Nata Strazda Documentation Full documentation can be found on the Audit Trail Page page.

Up until now the way theme and plugin developers find where to hook into with their add_action() and add_filter() functions is either to search through the WordPress code base, or find find a reference to the hook in the codex. What Simply Show Hooks does is give you a simpler way to see these hooks by displaying them in-line on the page that you are on. All that’s left to do then is copy the hook you need, and paste it in to your add_action and add_filter functions like this: add_action( ‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘my_enqueue_scripts_action’ ); add_filter( ‘the_title’, ‘my_the_title_filter’ ); I made this plugin so I could find WordPress hooks quicker and I use it all the time, so I thought I’d share it and see if it could help others. Enjoy! Please note that in odd cases, due to the nature of actions and filters, the plugin may display a hook in place that disrupts the display of your site – in which case we always display the ‘Hide Hooks’ button so you can switch it back off. This won’t disrupt the look of you site to anyone but you so don’t worry.
