#5190 closed defect (bug) (wontfix)

Widgets code run before admin_head hook is called

Description

When opening the widgets page in the administration section, the widgets are initialized before admin_head is called.
many plugin initializes in an admin_head callback, and in some cases the widgets initialization depends on the plugin initialization.

Logically it's also appropriate to call admin_head action first.

omry, what is an example of a plugin that this creates a problem for? Shouldn't it be initializing at 'init' anyways?

  • Version set to 2.3

admin_head should not be used to trigger events. It's only purpose is to output stuff for the <head>.

Instead, as filosofo said, use init and is_admin().
