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 … Read more
WordPress’ get_categories() function returns an array of category objects, each of which has a “count” property for the number of posts in that category. So something like this would get you a list of links to category pages: $categories = get_categories(); $markup = ‘<ul>’; foreach( $categories as $category ) { $catName = $category->category_nicename; $count = … Read more
Links open in new Tab or Window if the link <a> is added using target=”_blank” (either from HTML or JavaScript). I’ve just checked your site and saw only Twitter links open in new Tab / Window. Must be from the plugin you are using to generate the Twitter feed. Note: JQMIGRATE is installed by WordPress … Read more
You are adding filter, not an action. I don’t know how Genesis hook works, but native wp_nav_menu_items passes (and expects back) markup of custom menu items. Instead of echoing your additional stuff you should append it to input and return. This is clearly how it’s done in tutorial you linked to: add_filter(‘wp_nav_menu_items’,’follow_icons’,10,1); function follow_icons($output) { … Read more
Could you explain your context a little? I also think CSS is very fitting solutions to this. Partly because it makes sense for content/presentation balance, partly because custom menus are quite complex to figure out and I usually stay away form their internals. I use CSS with set of icons at my blog, so I … Read more
Yes – you can do this without having to write any code, too. On the ‘Menus’ page, locate the ‘Screen Options’ at the top of the page and locate the ‘CSS Classes’ check box. Click it. After that, expand a menu item and you’ll see a new option for ‘CSS Classes’
The data for Currently Active Menus is not included in the exports (by default). This is because there is no guarantee the importing site will have the same theme (or same named menus). If changing the menus was a big deal, you could export/import all the data straight out of the database. (This option is … Read more
Use ancestors: $ancestors = array_reverse( get_post_ancestors( $post->ID ) ); // reverse ancestors to make it more intuitive if ( isset( $ancestors[0] ) ) { if ( isset( $ancestors[1] ) ) { // 3rd tier $parent_id = $post->post_parent; } else { // 2nd tier $parent_id = $post->ID; } $args = array( ‘depth’ => 1, ‘child_of’ => … Read more
Menu items are a post type, and the menus to which they belong are taxonomy terms. So to create a post type in order to get a metabox from which you can add menu items seems a bit redundant (effectively duplicating every ‘special item’ in the database). In any case, setting the post type’s visibilty … Read more
the simplest way would be to create two menus on for admin and one for everyone else and display them based on that: if (current_user_can(‘add_users’)){ wp_nav_menu( array(‘menu’ => ‘My Admin Menu’ )); }else{ wp_nav_menu( array(‘menu’ => ‘My Users Menu’ )); }
