do_action( 'init' )
Fires after WordPress has finished loading but before any headers are sent.
Description Description
Most of WP is loaded at this stage, and the user is authenticated. WP continues to load on the ‘init’ hook that follows (e.g. widgets), and many plugins instantiate themselves on it for all sorts of reasons (e.g. they need a user, a taxonomy, etc.).
If you wish to plug an action once WP is loaded, use the ‘wp_loaded’ hook below.

This hook works almost like the
admin_init
hook. The difference is theadmin_init
fires on the initialization of admin screen or scripts and thisinit
hook fires on the initialization time of the whole WordPress script. Like-Now the above code will echo “Fired on the WordPress initialization” on initialization of WordPress.
