Is It Possible To Change The Menu In The Jetpack Mobile Theme?

Thanks for the report!
We’re aware of the issue, and we’re currently working on a fix to allow you to use your custom menus in the Mobile Theme.

I will post again as soon as we can address the issue.

Hey Jeremy,

Thanks so much for the reply! And also for the work you guys do! I believe you also had a part in creating the Featured Image plugin for the Jetpack Mobile Theme. With that plugin installed it’s given me the cleanest and best mobile theme I could find anywhere. So a huge thanks for your work!

I don’t want to rush, but I’m just wondering if you guys might have a time frame on the custom menu option for the Mobile Theme?

Thanks again,

David

Unfortunately I don’t have an ETA on that feature. I can only recommend that you keep an eye on our News Blog, as we’ll post there as soon as we release a new Jetpack update:

I wanted to let you know that the problem is now fixed. The fix will be available in the next Jetpack update.

@jeremy Herve is it available? I believe there has been an update since your post a month ago but unless I’m just blind, don’t see anywhere where you can add your themes 2nd menu.

@tonyv619 The update I was referring to allows you to add a custom menu even if you use a Child Theme.

Jetpack Mobile Theme doesn’t include a second menu location though; you will have to inser an additional menu through a small plugin if you want to add an extra menu to the theme.

@jeremy Herve and what plugin would that be?

Such plugin doesn’t exist, but you can build your own custom menu thanks to the wp_nav_menu function, and hook that menu anywhere into the Minileven theme, like so:

// Display the menu
function tweakjp_minileven_menu() {
	wp_nav_menu( array( 'theme_location' => 'minimenu', 'container_class' => '', 'menu_class' => 'nav-menu' ) );
}
add_action( 'wp_mobile_theme_footer', 'tweakjp_minileven_menu' );	

// Register the menu
register_nav_menu( 'minimenu', __( 'Custom mobile Menu', 'jetpack' ) );

Note that I haven’t tested this code.

Another solution would be to add a custom menu widget to your sidebar, thus displaying the menu in the sidebar in the mobile theme.
