3.0 Alpha, menu not working suddenly?

  • Hey all,

    I’ve been working with the 3.0 alpha since day one. After yesterdays update, my menu isn’t working anymore. In the backend I get the following error in the menu options:

    “The current theme does not natively support menus, but you can use the “Navigation Menu” widget to add any menus you create here to the theme’s sidebar.”

    Anyone know what happend with the last update? How can I change it back or improve the menu so it will work?

    Kind regards,
    Robin

    It depends on which theme you are using, but likely it will be in one of sidebar.php, header.php, or footer.php

    Also, this thread is for the Alpha version of 3.0, which you should upgrade from, if you haven’t already. This may not even be your problem. Good luck with it.

    A belated note, add_theme_support('menus') was changed specifically because it is internal only. Don’t use it on your own. It won’t work. Instead, use register_nav_menu.

    Anyway, your menus probably aren’t working because your theme is de-registering jQuery bundled in core and re-registering the latest jQuery, 1.5. This breaks the widgets panel, due to backwards incompatible changes in the jQuery library.

    You’ll want to ensure that the theme only does this on the frontend, if at all. WordPress 3.2 will have 1.5+. WordPress 3.1 will have 1.4.4.

    Thanks for the response guys ! Its pointed me in the right direction
