apply_filters( 'admin_body_class', string $classes )

Filters the CSS classes for the body tag in the admin.


Description Description

This filter differs from the ‘post_class’ and ‘body_class’ filters in two important ways:

  1. $classes is a space-separated string of class names instead of an array.
  2. Not all core admin classes are filterable, notably: wp-admin, wp-core-ui, and no-js cannot be removed.

Parameters Parameters

$classes

(string) Space-separated list of CSS classes.

    When adding new classes to the body, you should make sure to add spaces before and after your class name. This prevents accidental concatenation of two plugins class-names.

    Example:

    function admin_body_class( $classes ) {
        // Wrong: No space in the beginning/end.
        $classes .= 'my-class1 my-class2';
    
        // Right: Add a leading space and a trailing space.
        $classes .= ' my-class1 my-class2 ';
    
        return $classes;
    }
