I use Plugin Boilerplate for my project. I searched the internet and read all the questions but I couldn’t find what I need. I also read the WordPress Codex. I think I couldn’t get the idea.
I have two columns on my page. Col1 and Col2
Inside col1: wp_list_table
Inside col2: empty
Page address: admin.php?page=company#home
When I clicked the Add New button on wp_list_table, the address bar shows admin.php?page=company#home&action=new
I want to get the action value from the url. I tried the code below:
function addnew_query_vars($vars) {
$vars[] = 'action';
return $vars;
}
add_filter('query_vars', 'add_query_vars_filter');
echo $value = get_query_var('action'); // Nothing happens
How I can get action value? If I can get the value, I’ll show a form inside the col2 or using a switch statement for other situations.
UPDATE 1.1.0
Using get_current_screen
require_once(ABSPATH . 'wp-admin/includes/screen.php');
$screen = get_current_screen();
echo $screen->action; // Null
I'm using query monitor plugin. I looked Admin Screen status get_current_screen() action is empty. So I need to go back.
In the my WP_List_Table header code, my Add New button code is like this:
<a href="<?php echo admin_url( 'admin.php?page=company#home&action=new' );?>">
php _e( 'Add New', 'ironhead' )
</a>
I think this code block doesn't post the action. There is set_current_screen() command. But I don't solve how to set Admin Screen action attribute. IF I can use it, I can use get_current_screen(). Anyone help me?

Working in the admin is quite a bit different from the front-end of a WordPress site. Most of the documentation you'll find online deals solely with the front-end. That can be frustrating when looking for something that should be simple and straightforward.
In this case, I think you would use get_current_screen(). This returns the screen's ID, action, base, and other features of the admin page.
From the codex on get_current_screen():
This function returns an object that includes the screen’s ID, base, post type, and taxonomy, among other data points
This doesn't work everywhere in the admin, so make sure you read the restrictions.
I don't know it's true or false, there is a solution with form element and old PHP knowledge :)
FORM
<form role="form" method="post" action="admin.php?page=company#home">
<h4><?php _e( 'Firma Listesi', 'ironhead' ); ?>
<input id="action" name="action" hidden="" type="text" value="new">
<button id="new" name="action_new" class="add-new-h2"><?php _e( 'Add New', 'ironhead' ); ?></button></h4>
</form>
POST
echo @$_POST['action'];
Is there any true method?
@Pecado yes, $_POST['action'] will work. I have created a page in admin section and I've used form to submit and retrieving form field on $_POST
#homecoming from? Are you adding that to the page url?
