admin_page_access_denied action never called

[solo14000]

Hello,

I have setup my own custom WP theme.
I'm trying to customize denied access to WP admin by registering my own callback on the 'admin_page_access_denied' hook.

But unfortunately, my callback is never called.

I have simply added the code snippet provided as example in the Codex (​https://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Action_Reference/admin_page_access_denied) in my functions.php.

Can anyone confirm this?

Thanks

Interesting. Codex mentions that it's available since WordPress 2.5, but as far as I can tell, it has never been a part of any WordPress release.

I'd suggest removing the Codex page.

Replying to SergeyBiryukov:

Hmm, I can see the action in trunk/src/wp-admin/includes/menu.php?rev=37914&marks=335-340#L335​.

Ah, the example was wrong, it referenced admin_access_page_denied instead of admin_page_access_denied.

I've corrected the example. Thanks for the ticket, @solo14000!
