Ahh. Well, we can discuss it further over on the Github page if you'd like, but in brief, I named them as such so that you can easily determine hook location semantically by scanning left-to-right. [prefix]_[semantic theme portion]_[position]. It's actually in the "Conventions" portion of the README. *grin*<div class="gmail_extra">

That wasn't my question. I agree with what you said. What I asked is why is the hook called header_after and not after_header how semantics dictate and how it's always been done.<br>
