bp_is_action_variable( string $action_variable = '', int|bool $position = false )
Check to see whether the current page matches a given action_variable.
Description Description
Along with bp_is_current_component() and bp_is_current_action(), this function is mostly used to help determine when to use a given screen function.
In BP parlance, action_variables are an array made up of the URL chunks appearing after the current_action in a URL. For example, http://example.com/groups/my-group/admin/group-settings $action_variables[0] is ‘group-settings’.
Parameters Parameters
- $action_variable
-
(Optional) The action_variable being tested against.
Default value: ''
- $position
-
(Optional) The array key you're testing against. If you don't provide a $position, the function will return true if the $action_variable is found *anywhere* in the action variables array.
Default value: false
Return Return
(bool) True if $action_variable matches at the $position provided.
