Why can’t I catch a breakpoint on a standard widget meta?

  • Why can’t I catch a breakpoint on a standard widget meta. Other filters work. What’s wrong ?

    I try:

    add_filter('widget_meta', 'change_widget_title');
function change_widget_title(){
	$sto = 100;
}

    I removed unneeded links directly from the file, but there may be a filter or a hook
    \wp-includes\widgets\class-wp-widget-meta.php

    <li><a href="<?php echo esc_url( get_bloginfo( 'rss2_url' ) ); ?>"><?php _e( 'Entries feed' ); ?></a></li>
<li><a href="<?php echo esc_url( get_bloginfo( 'comments_rss2_url' ) ); ?>"><?php _e( 'Comments feed' ); ?></a></li>

    All filter functions must return a value.
    Your filter function doesn’t even take in a value, much less return one.

    I think there is no such filter for the meta widget.
    Since for a filter “widget_title”, the breakpoint works fine during debugging.

    add_filter('widget_title', 'change_widget_title');

    I think there is no such filter for the meta widget.

    That’s my finding as well, as it pertains to core code. No telling what themes or plugins might do.
