WordPress Custom Header via plugin

I need to create custom header for my WordPress theme. But I need to do it via plugin. Something like I have prebuild header in my plugin. I need to set it to header and I need to remove theme default header.

I research everywhere but I couldn't find any resource for this.

Solution

  • Please use the below code to load the header from plugin.

    add_action('get_header', function(){
    require PLUGIN_DIR.'includes/templates/header.php';
    $templates   = [];
    $templates[] = 'header.php';
    remove_all_actions( 'wp_head' );
    ob_start();
    locate_template( $templates, true );
    ob_get_clean();
});
