How to add custom button in wordpress admin section

To add a custom button in the WordPress admin section, you can follow these steps:

  1. Open your WordPress dashboard and navigate to the functions.php file of your theme. You can find this file under Appearance > Theme Editor.

  2. Once you have the functions.php file open, you need to add the code to create the custom button. Here's an example code snippet that you can use:

function custom_admin_button() {
    echo '<a href="#" class="button button-primary">Custom Button</a>';
}

add_action('admin_footer', 'custom_admin_button');
  1. In the code snippet above, we define a function called custom_admin_button that echoes out the HTML markup for the custom button. You can modify the HTML markup to suit your needs.

  2. The add_action('admin_footer', 'custom_admin_button') line of code hooks the custom_admin_button function to the admin_footer action. This ensures that the custom button will be displayed in the footer of the WordPress admin section.

  3. Save the changes to the functions.php file.

  4. Now, when you visit the WordPress admin section, you should see the custom button at the bottom of the page.

That's it! You have successfully added a custom button to the WordPress admin section.
