Different menus without categories
-
I found the following code on this stackexchange from this page Display a portion/ branch of the menu tree using wp_nav_menu(). It almost does what I need, except I need the whole menu, the item was chosen from, instead of the item name. I also need only 1 menu to show at a time. I basically would like to get different menus on each page, without using categories, based off the menu item chosen at that point. I really think this might work but because of my lack of skills I’ve just not been able to rewrite it so that it works how I need.
This is the code.
<?php add_filter( 'wp_nav_menu_objects', 'submenu_limit', 10, 2 ); function submenu_limit( $items, $args ) { if ( empty($args->submenu) ) return $items; $parent_id = array_pop( wp_filter_object_list( $items, array( 'title' => $args->submenu ), 'and', 'ID' ) ); $children = submenu_get_children_ids( $parent_id, $items ); foreach ( $items as $key => $item ) { if ( ! in_array( $item->ID, $children ) ) unset($items[$key]); } return $items; } function submenu_get_children_ids( $id, $items ) { $ids = wp_filter_object_list( $items, array( 'menu_item_parent' => $id ), 'and', 'ID' ); foreach ( $ids as $id ) { $ids = array_merge( $ids, submenu_get_children_ids( $id, $items ) ); } return $ids; } ?> <?php class Selective_Walker extends Walker_Nav_Menu { function walk( $elements, $max_depth) { $args = array_slice(func_get_args(), 2) $output = ''; if ($max_depth < -1) //invalid parameter return $output; if (empty($elements)) //nothing to walk return $output; $id_field = $this->db_fields['id']; $parent_field = $this->db_fields['parent']; // flat display if ( -1 == $max_depth ) { $empty_array = array(); foreach ( $elements as $e ) $this->display_element( $e, $empty_array, 1, 0, $args, $output ); return $output; } /* * need to display in hierarchical order * separate elements into two buckets: top level and children elements * children_elements is two dimensional array, eg. * children_elements[10][] contains all sub-elements whose parent is 10. */ $top_level_elements = array(); $children_elements = array(); foreach ( $elements as $e) { if ( 0 == $e->$parent_field ) $top_level_elements[] = $e; else $children_elements[ $e->$parent_field ][] = $e; } /* * when none of the elements is top level * assume the first one must be root of the sub elements */ if ( empty($top_level_elements) ) { $first = array_slice( $elements, 0, 1 ); $root = $first[0]; $top_level_elements = array(); $children_elements = array(); foreach ( $elements as $e) { if ( $root->$parent_field == $e->$parent_field ) $top_level_elements[] = $e; else $children_elements[ $e->$parent_field ][] = $e; } } $current_element_markers = array( 'current-menu-item', 'current-menu-parent', 'current-menu-ancestor' ); //added by continent7 foreach ( $top_level_elements as $e ){ //changed by continent7 // descend only on current tree $descend_test = array_intersect( $current_element_markers, $e->classes ); if ( !empty( $descend_test ) ) //unset ($children_elements); $this->display_element( $e, $children_elements,2,0, $args, $output ); //$this->display_element( $e, $children_elements,$max_depth,0, $args, $output ); } /* * if we are displaying all levels, and remaining children_elements is not empty, * then we got orphans, which should be displayed regardless */ /* removed by continent7 if ( ( $max_depth == 0 ) && count( $children_elements ) > 0 ) { $empty_array = array(); foreach ( $children_elements as $orphans ) foreach( $orphans as $op ) $this->display_element( $op, $empty_array, 1, 0, $args, $output ); } */ return $output; } } ?> <?php wp_nav_menu( array( //'theme_location'=>'business', 'menu'=>'business', 'walker'=>new Selective_Walker() ) ); ?> <?php wp_nav_menu( array( 'theme_location'=>'personal', 'walker'=>new Selective_Walker() ) ); ?>
The link to where I have also posted for help is below, no one has answered there either and I am not sure if I posted it wrong or something, and I am not sure if I am breaking any forum rules. I only mention it because I want to come clean that I know I posted it in 2 places. Please help, please share with your colleagues if you don’t know.
