AdPresso is built to be extended. Use filters and actions to customize its behavior and integrations, and shortcodes to embed ads and placements wherever you need them – without modifying the plugin’s core files.

Filters

Modify AdPresso data, settings, rendering and other plugin behavior using WordPress filter hooks. Learn which filters are available, what values they receive and return, and how to use them in your own integrations.

Actions

Run your own code at specific points in the AdPresso lifecycle and extend existing functionality. Learn which action hooks are available, when they are triggered and how to use them for custom integrations and extensions.

Shortcodes

Embed individual AdPresso ads, ad groups and manual placements anywhere WordPress processes shortcodes, e.g. directly in posts, templates and other WordPress content. Learn about available shortcodes, attributes and PHP usage.
