Override WordPress Core functions with the plugin

Advertisement

WordPress allows us to override WordPress Core functions from the plugin.

We can define those functions into the plugin and implement our own logic.

File: wp-includes\pluggable.php

Below is the list of all WordPress core functions which we can override from the plugin.
