I watched Hooks, Action Hooks, I might as well finish with Filter Hooks. :) I had playback issues with this video at around the 3-minute mark. I refreshed and rewatched it from the beginning.

Same here, @JunebackpocketACE :-))

After watching all three, I wonder if it would make sense to show the snippets from the other lessons on screen, so people can better orient themselves inside the functions.php file. On the other hand, in the first tutorial (Hooks) you demonstrate the functionality using a plugin, which means going back to record a new section.

Yeah, this one I struggle with a lot, especially in the context of learning pathway lessons vs stand-alone tutorials. How much is too much/how little is too little.

I'm going to make a note of this, but publish the lesson as is anyway. If we get feedback from learners that it's confusing, I can always add the extra bits.
