Thread: Using hooks to change functions or remove them

Using hooks to change functions or remove them

Ive been changing a theme I made to use functions and hooks rather than editing the theme itself. I have managed to add custom CSS files and changed the footer but am now stuck on one of my tasks at hand.

I'm trying to remove jr_job_author() from the job loop and replace it with an edited version - ie not to display that the advert was posted by admin.

(as a quick method I edited the the theme-functions file and edited the code directly - not the best method)



I have tried removing the function in functions.php using the supplied code:

remove_action( 'appthemes_tried_various methods', 'jr_job_author' );

When using it as a stand alone it doesn't seem to work and when I use the code provided in the removing the footer and replacing it with something similar i'm told unhook_appthemes_functions has already been used.




Any help would be very beneficial, Thank you!
