What Is the Priority of Hooks in Woocommerce?

[Zain]

Hey, I have a technical query, about WooCommerce hooks.

Can you explain about me WooCommerce Hooks and what is the priority of hooks in WooCommerce?

As per WooCommerce Docs,

The default priority for hooks is 10, but you can specify a different number to control the order in which hooks are executed .

In WooCommerce, hooks can be prioritized using a third parameter in the add_action() and add_filter() functions.

For example, if you want to ensure that your function is executed before all other functions attached to the woocommerce_before_cart_table hook, you could use a priority of 1

Code:  add_action( ‘woocommerce_before_cart_table’, ‘my_function’, 1 );

Setting a lower priority number (like 1) will make the hook run earlier, while a higher number (like 20) will make it run later.WooCommerce also has a specific order in which hooks are executed by default, so it’s important to be aware of that when prioritizing your own hooks.

For example, some hooks are executed before the page header is loaded, while others are executed after the page footer is loaded.By understanding how to prioritize hooks, you can control the order in which your custom functions are executed relative to other hooks in WooCommerce.

This allows you to modify the behavior of WooCommerce at specific points in the page load process.
