Shortcode to add UM Menu to the top of pages?

Hi @genelaratonda

Which UM Menu are you referring to? Could you please provide a screenshot? You can upload the screenshot via imgur.com and then share the image URL here so we can review it.

Regards,

I’d like to put the `Members, Account, Login, Logout, Password Reset, & Register links here:

Hi @genelaratonda

You can try adding this code snippet to your theme/child-theme’s functions.php file or use the Code Snippet plugin to run the code. Once the code is added, you can use this shortcode [um_custom_menus] to the pages to show the menu.

add_shortcode("um_custom_menus", function(){
   if( ! function_exists("um_get_core_page") ) return; 
$output .= "<a href='".um_get_core_page("members")."'>Members</a> | ";
$output .= "<a href='".um_get_core_page("account")."'>Account</a> | ";
$output .= "<a href='".um_get_core_page("login")."'>Login</a> | ";
$output .= "<a href='".um_get_core_page("logout")."'>Logout</a> | ";
$output .= "<a href='".um_get_core_page("password-reset")."'>Reset Password </a> | ";
$output .= "<a href='".um_get_core_page("register")."'>Register</a>";
   return $output;
});

Regards,

As soon as I activated the code snippet the site broke. Bad gateway. Critical error on WordPress. Now I cannot access the site at all!

@genelaratonda

How did you add the code snippet?

Do you have FTP or phpMyAdmin access to your site?

The hosting provide was able to disable the plugin on the server.

1.) I added it via “Code Snippets” plugin.

2.) I added the following code as given above by my good man Champ in the text area:

Q1.) Why isn’t there a closing php tag?

3.) I did add Champ’s email in the Description:

Q2.) Could the code I put in the description from the email be causing the problem?

4.) I pressed activate and the site became unresponsive and gave a critical Worpress error.

@genelaratonda

It looks like you have copied the code snippet
from the email to the code section of the plugin.

Try to replace the code section with the code copied from the Forum post.

Hi @genelaratonda

Please visit the topic on wp.org and then copy the code. Visit this page in the link:

@champsupertramp Unfortunately the bad code snippet gets activated as soon as I activate the Code Snippet plugin and crashes the site again. I tried to uninstall and reinstall the Code Snippets plugin hoping it would delete the bad snippet, but it does not.

I have a support question in now with Code Snippets.

I tried to install another code snippet plugin called, “Post Snippets” but nothing happens. The shortcode just displays as plain text.

I edited the Code Snippet plugin code to not activate the snippets. I changed the code to what you have above and everything is working now. Thank you again Champ!

Hi @genelaratonda
