# Update Action

Elementor Core Basic

To modify an existing action, we need to change the action object value in a specific entry.

# Update Widget Action

In the example below, we'll update the widget-action action icon:

elementor.hooks.addFilter( 'elements/context-menu/groups', ( customGroups, elementType ) => {

	if ( 'widget' === elementType ) {
		customGroups.forEach( ( group ) => {
			if ( 'custom-widget-actions' === group.name ) {
				group.actions.forEach( ( action ) => {
					if ( 'widget-action' === action.name ) {
						action.icon = 'eicon-code';
					}
				} );
			}
		} );
	}

	return customGroups;

} );

# Update Column Action

Now we'll update the label of a column-action action title:

elementor.hooks.addFilter( 'elements/context-menu/groups', ( customGroups, elementType ) => {

	if ( 'column' === elementType ) {
		customGroups.forEach( ( group ) => {
			if ( 'custom-column-actions' === group.name ) {
				group.actions.forEach( ( action ) => {
					if ( 'column-action' === action.name ) {
						action.title = 'New Label';
					}
				} );
			}
		} );
	}

	return customGroups;

} );

# Update Section Action

Next we'll update the entire section-action action:

elementor.hooks.addFilter( 'elements/context-menu/groups', ( customGroups, elementType ) => {

	if ( 'column' === elementType ) {
		customGroups.forEach( ( group ) => {
			if ( 'custom-column-actions' === group.name ) {
				group.actions.forEach( ( action ) => {
					if ( 'column-action' === action.name ) {
						action.icon = 'eicon-alert';
						action.title = 'Hellooo';
						action.callback = () => alert( 'bla bla' );
					}
				} );
			}
		} );
	}

	return customGroups;

} );
