    Hello guys,
    I develop a theme which display three diffrent menus in one block.
    To do so I use $_GET to switch between the men    u, Example:

    <a href="?navopt=main">Main</a><a href="?navopt=brand">Brands</a><a href="?navopt=filter">Filter</a>
            <?php
            $nav = ( $_GET['navopt'] ) ? $_GET['navopt'] : main ;
            wp_nav_menu( array(
                'theme_location' => $nav,
                'container' => 'false'
                ) );
            echo $nav; ?>

    *The final echo is just for debugging.

    But when I use get_query_var(), it doesnt work.
    (I replaced the $_GET[‘navopt’] with get_query_var(‘navopt’).

  • To use get_query_var() you must first ensure your query var is recognised by WordPress as follows:

    add_filter('query_vars', 'register_navopt_query_var' );
function register_navopt_query_var( $qvars ) {
   $qvars[] = 'navopt';
   return $qvars;
}
