    Add New Classes

    You can add additional body classes by filtering the {@see ‘body_class’} hook.

    To add the following to the WordPress Theme functions.php file, changing my_class_names and class-name to meet your needs:

    // Add specific CSS class by filter.
    
    add_filter( 'body_class', function( $classes ) {
    	return array_merge( $classes, array( 'class-name' ) );
    } );
