Wordpress hooks – some don't work
Depends what you do in (or with) CiviCRM as to which hooks fire. So, for example, when I go to "Manage Events", I see the following in my logs:

[02-Feb-2018 17:05:56 Europe/London] Array
(
    [method] =&gt; civicrm_alterAPIPermissions
    [permissions] =&gt; event
    [backtrace] =&gt; #0 /path/to/wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php(288): civicrm_alterAPIPermissions('event')
    ... lots of backtrace ...
)


If I go to "Configure Event - Rain-forest Cup Youth Soccer Tournament" (I've got a test install with the sample data) then I also see:

[02-Feb-2018 17:09:46 Europe/London] Array
(
    [method] =&gt; civicrm_aclGroup
    [type] =&gt; 4
    [contactID] =&gt; 202
    [tableName] =&gt; civicrm_uf_group
    [allGroups] =&gt; Array
        (
            [10] =&gt; Contribution Bulk Entry
            [13] =&gt; Honoree Individual
            [11] =&gt; Membership Bulk Entry
            [1] =&gt; Name and Address
            [6] =&gt; New Household
            [4] =&gt; New Individual
            [5] =&gt; New Organization
            [9] =&gt; On Behalf Of Organization
            [3] =&gt; Participant Status
            [8] =&gt; Shared Address
            [7] =&gt; Summary Overlay
            [2] =&gt; Supporter Profile
            [12] =&gt; Your Registration Info
        )

    [currentGroups] =&gt; 
    [backtrace] =&gt; #0 /path/to/wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php(286): civicrm_aclGroup(4, '202', 'civicrm_uf_grou...', Array, NULL)
    ... lots of backtrace ...
)


If I visit "WordPress Access Control" under Administer -> Users &amp; Permissions, I get:

[02-Feb-2018 17:19:26 Europe/London] Array
(
    [method] =&gt; civicrm_permission
    [permissions] =&gt; Array
        (
        )

    [backtrace] =&gt; #0 /path/to/wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php(286): civicrm_permission(Array)
        ... lots of backtrace ...
)


So, in summary: those hooks do fire -  but only when needed.
