WordPress:Function Reference/remove filter

Description

This function removes a function attached to a specified filter hook. This method can be used to remove default functions attached to a specific filter hook and possibly replace them with a substitute. See also remove_action(), add_filter() and add_action().

Important: To remove a hook, the $function_to_remove and $priority arguments must match when the hook was added. This goes for both filters and actions. No warning will be given on removal failure.

Example

This function is identical to the remove_action() function.

<?php remove_filter($tag, $function_to_remove, $priority, $accepted_args); ?>

Return

(boolean) Whether the function is removed.

True

The function was successfully removed.

False

The function could not be removed.
