By default, WordPress applies ancestor classes to the parents of active items. All you have to do is target them via CSS: .nav-menu li.current_page_ancestor > a, .nav-menu li.current-menu-ancestor > a {} This code sample implies that your menu has the .nav-menu class. This will work with a navigation menu and with the page menu fallback.
You should use anchors to do this. From W3C: When the name or id attributes of the A element are set, the element defines an anchor that may be the destination of other links. Authors may set the name and href attributes simultaneously in the same A instance. and… The id attribute may be used … Read more
Your initial concrete problem Mkay. I think I understood what it is you are trying to do. You are attempting to identify the pages (and subpages) you want to list by the page template being used by the parent pages and that by means of checking the value of the _wp_page_template postmeta. For one, that … Read more
I know I can change WP to use nice permalinks to get www.example.com/wordpress/about but I’d like to customise it further so that the link would read www.example.com/about e.g. skip the wordpress install location. Rather than “skipping the location”, point your domain to the location. Or install WP to your root, respectively. You could obviously do … Read more
as the 5 parameter to add_menu_page() you send the resultat of running the function, insted of sending a callable reference to the function, as you did in the add_action. $hookname = add_menu_page ( ‘My Slider’, ‘My Slider’, ‘manage_options’, ‘my_slider’, array( ‘My_Slider’, ‘render_admin_menu’) );
You can use get_nav_menu_locations and wp_get_nav_menu_items to get your menu items. $locations = get_nav_menu_locations(); $nav_items = wp_get_nav_menu_items($locations[‘your-menu-slug’]); You can then process $nav_items to display your page content. It can get complicated but it does work.
Use get_the_ID() before you start the loop, then compare: $original_id = is_singular() ? get_the_ID() : 0; $args = array(‘post_type’ => ‘services’); $services = new WP_Query( $args ); $cnt = 0; if( $services->have_posts() ) { while( $services->have_posts() ) { $services->the_post(); if ( get_the_ID() === $original_id ) echo ‘This is me!’;
This would be my solution to the problem if you want to make edits on the back-end(Admin area) in the site at any time. If you want a static menu just insert step 1 where you needed it and skip the rest. Hope it helps! Your CODE will look similar to this: Step 1) Create … Read more
The menu is most likely part of the file header.php, which is called from get_header(). To alter the header just for your custom template, you may create another header file (e.g. header-no-menu.php), and call it using get_header(‘no-menu’). Here’s a link to some documentation: http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_header Hope that helps!
From what you described, it sounds like you might need to use a custom walker for the wp_nav_menu call. To create a custom walker that modifies the wrapper for dropdown lists, start with this class: <?php class wpse_112127_walker extends Walker_Nav_Menu { function start_lvl( &$output, $depth ) { $indent = str_repeat(“\t”, $depth); $output .= “\n” . … Read more
