As far as I’ve seen a menu object does not have the ‘current’ property, does it? Not that I ever seen it, at least. So you can get close to what you’re asking by comparing the current post/page ID (get_the_ID()
) with the items’ object_id
property, when they match – boom! you got your currently selected menu.
function wpse25992_store_current_id( $items, $menu, $args ) {
foreach ( $items as $key => $item ) {
// this is the currently displayed object
if ( $item->object_id == get_the_ID() )
$_SESSION['current_menu_title'] = $item->title;
}
return $items;
}
add_filter( 'wp_get_nav_menu_items', 'wpse31748_exclude_menu_items', null, 3 );
