  • Simple and just plain great!!

    I don't understand why there are only 7 reviews for this plugin but I do understand why they are all 5 stars. I guess everyone else identifies hooks and actions manually 😅 ..which is totally doable but why not just use this very light, configuration-less gem? Sure other more bloated plugins also offer the same feature but I'm going to stick with this specific, ready-made solution that gets the job done right.

  • Fantastic tool for speeding up my development!

    This plugin is fantastic. There is zero configuration needed. You just go to a page on the front-end and choose from the drop-down what type of hooks you want to see. You then get a visual representation of them. Then you can simply deactivate the plugin until the next time you are looking for a hook. Thanks Muhammad!

  • It is a must have plugin if you are a developer

    The UI is awkward a little bit, but at least it works well.

  • Nice utility!

    I was going to write something myself but after this great work I stopped. One thing that would be nice, would be the ability to filter out certain hooks/filters only. In my case I want to see the WooCommerce hooks/filters only, that would be really cool to have. Thanks!
