Thank you so much for sharing this! This little helper made me stop banging my head just in time.
Thanks
Thanks for sharing!
No problem, I updated the gist to include a check if the functions exists first, in case devs decide to add this to plugins, or themes, without checking if it exists first 👍
the Code wont work, so I had to write my own:
function remove_class_action ($action,$class,$method) {
global $wp_filter ;
if (isset($wp_filter[$action])) {
$len = strlen($method) ;
foreach ($wp_filter[$action] as $pri => $actions) {
foreach ($actions as $name => $def) {
if (substr($name,-$len) == $method) {
if (is_array($def['function'])) {
if (get_class($def['function'][0]) == $class) {
if (is_object($wp_filter[$action]) && isset($wp_filter[$action]->callbacks)) {
unset($wp_filter[$action]->callbacks[$pri][$name]) ;
} else {
unset($wp_filter[$action][$pri][$name]) ;
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
@akkara what was the issue/error you were having with the above code?
What do you hook this to? I tried plugins_loaded, but it didnt do anything
I've made the function even simpler for those who are running WP 4.7 or higher (it won't work for older WP versions). It works well!
function remove_class_hook( $tag, $class_name = '', $method_name = '', $priority = 10 ) {
global $wp_filter;
$is_hook_removed = false;
if ( ! empty( $wp_filter[ $tag ]->callbacks[ $priority ] ) ) {
$methods = wp_list_pluck( $wp_filter[ $tag ]->callbacks[ $priority ], 'function' );
$found_hooks = ! empty( $methods ) ? wp_list_filter( $methods, array( 1 => $method_name ) ) : array();
foreach( $found_hooks as $hook_key => $hook ) {
if ( ! empty( $hook[0] ) && is_object( $hook[0] ) && get_class( $hook[0] ) === $class_name ) {
$wp_filter[ $tag ]->remove_filter( $tag, $hook, $priority );
$is_hook_removed = true;
}
}
}
return $is_hook_removed;
}

All depends on what you're trying to remove. You need to determine when the add_action
is being called (that you want to remove), and make sure you're calling your code to remove it, AFTER that point ... either with a higher priority to another action, or after that code has been ran to add that action/filter
Thank you so much @davelavoie it's working perfectly.
Awesome! Thanks.
@davelavoie Thank you very much! It save me a lot of time !
Very useful! Thank you! I think remove_class_action
should return remove_class_filter
as latter returns true
if successful. So it should read return remove_class_filter($tag, $class_name, $method_name, $priority);
@ouun yes i agree, updated the gist to reflect that, thanks!
Thanks a lot, struggled to remove an action with a class name and your functions worked straight away!
Hi all,
From WP 5.5, there seems to be an issue when removing anonymous functions that could cause an Uncaught Error: Closure object cannot have properties in /var/www/html/wp-includes/class-wp-list-util.php:115.
I have seen a related issue here: senlin/so-clean-up-wp-seo#88
Where a new filter to this function was added on this commit:
senlin/so-clean-up-wp-seo@aa061ca
function remove_class_hook( $tag, $class_name = '', $method_name = '', $priority = 10 ) {
global $wp_filter;
$is_hook_removed = false;
if ( ! empty( $wp_filter[ $tag ]->callbacks[ $priority ] ) ) {
$methods = array_filter(wp_list_pluck(
$wp_filter[ $tag ]->callbacks[ $priority ],
'function'
), function ($method) {
/**
* Allow only array & string notation for hooks, since we're
* looking to remove an exact method of a class anyway. And the
* method of the class is passed in as a string anyway.
*/
return is_string($method) || is_array($method);
});
$found_hooks = ! empty( $methods ) ? wp_list_filter( $methods, array( 1 => $method_name ) ) : array();
foreach( $found_hooks as $hook_key => $hook ) {
if ( ! empty( $hook[0] ) && is_object( $hook[0] ) && get_class( $hook[0] ) === $class_name ) {
$wp_filter[ $tag ]->remove_filter( $tag, $hook, $priority );
$is_hook_removed = true;
}
}
}
return $is_hook_removed;
}
Thanks!
