How to remove storefront_homepage_content() action

    Hello guys,

    I am trying to remove storefront_homepage_content() function in Storefront child theme and replace it with my own. So I wrote this function…

    
function shs_remove_actions_parent_theme() {
   remove_action('homepage', 'storefront_homepage_content', 5); // doesnt work
};
add_action( 'init', 'shs_remove_actions_parent_theme', 1);

    …which should remove it, but it doesnt. And I have no idea why, because similar code…

    
function shs_remove_actions_parent_theme() {
   remove_action('storefront_homepage', 'storefront_homepage_header', 10); //works
   remove_action('storefront_homepage', 'storefront_page_content', 20); //works
};
add_action( 'init', 'shs_remove_actions_parent_theme', 1);

    …works like a charm.

    I know, that storefront_homepage_content() is a pluggapble function so simply using it in my plugin which I am developing should be enough, but on one of my sites I am getting error “plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error. -> cannot redeclare function storefront_homepage_content()” error so removing action and hooking my own function with the same name MUST work every time.

    For now, I have simply deleted storefront_homepage_content() from parent theme (see link) and it works but I hate this nasty workaround and want my plugin to work properly every time.

    Can anyone, please, help? How can I remove storefront_homepage_content() function before hooking my own with the same name?

    Thank you very much.

    Hi @mirio,

    The problem is that your priority was 5 but it should be 10. This should work:

    function shs_remove_actions_parent_theme() {
   remove_action('homepage', 'storefront_homepage_content', 10); // doesnt work
};
add_action( 'init', 'shs_remove_actions_parent_theme', 1);

    Great! Problem was priority. I am using plugins to find out what hooks where and with what priority, but it seems that only reliable option is to search through source code itself…

    Thank you very much!
