Wordpress where "admin_url" is installed?

Question

in principle, you need to change the value, which - admin_url () returns any idea?

Answer 1

This function is defined in wp-includes / link-template.php and it offers a filter:

/**
 * Retrieve the url to the admin area.
 *
 * @package WordPress
 * @since 2.6.0
 *
 * @param string $path Optional path relative to the admin url
 * @return string Admin url link with optional path appended
*/
function admin_url($path = '') {
    $url = site_url('wp-admin/', 'admin');

    if ( !empty($path) && is_string($path) && strpos($path, '..') === false )
        $url .= ltrim($path, '/');

    return apply_filters('admin_url', $url, $path);
}

This way you can control the output using your own filter function in your functions.php themes :

add_filter('admin_url', 'my_new_admin_url');

function my_new_admin_url()
{
    // Insert the new URL here:
    return 'http://example.org/boss/';
}

Now we hope that all authors of the plugin use this function, and not a hard-coded path ... :)

Adding

Add this line to your .htaccess:

Redirect permanent /wp-admin/ http://example.org/new_url/
