Add_feed - bug and fix - Replacing callback function

[programming.has.no.com]

When adding a feed using add_feed (wp-includes/rewrite.php) you can not replace the callback function with a one with a different name, as this will try to remove a callback that doesn't exist, thus remove_action fails. Adding a $remove_function to the function variables and checking for its presence and removing the correct callback function fixes this.

buggy version
function add_feed($feedname, $function) {

global $wp_rewrite;
if (!in_array($feedname, $wp_rewrite->feeds)) { override the file if it is

$wp_rewrite->feeds[] = $feedname;

}
$hook = 'do_feed_' . $feedname;
remove_action($hook, $function, 10, 1);
add_action($hook, $function, 10, 1);
return $hook;

}

fixed version
function add_feed($feedname, $function, $remove_function="") {

global $wp_rewrite;
if (!in_array($feedname, $wp_rewrite->feeds)) { override the file if it is

$wp_rewrite->feeds[] = $feedname;

}
$hook = 'do_feed_' . $feedname;
if($remove_function != "") remove_action($hook, $remove_function, 10, 1);
else remove_action($hook, $function, 10, 1);
add_action($hook, $function, 10, 1);
return $hook;

}

         }
         $hook = 'do_feed_' . $feedname;
         remove_action($hook, $function, 10, 1);

 }

How about always removing the default function for that feed?

Replying to ryan:

How about always removing the default function for that feed?

Yer that would work, and save changing the function arguments... How about this version?

function add_feed($feedname, $function) {

global $wp_rewrite;
if (!in_array($feedname, $wp_rewrite->feeds)) { override the file if it is

$wp_rewrite->feeds[] = $feedname;

}
$hook = 'do_feed_' . $feedname;
remove_action($hook, $hook, 10, 1);
add_action($hook, $function, 10, 1);
return $hook;

}
