If you look in the wp_nav_menu() function, you see the items are written by walk_nav_menu_tree(), which calls Walker_Nav_Menu to do the work (unless you specified your own walker class). This class contains a method start_el() that is called for each menu item. In this function, you see that the classes are filtered through nav_menu_css_class and … Read more
