Using Page Titles as Conditions in If Menu

  • Albeit simple and a bit heavy handed,I was able to edit the conditions.php file to compare to page titles by: 

    $conditions[] = array(
	'name'	=>	__( 'Page is Products', 'if-menu' ),
	'condition' =>	'if_menu_is_products_page'
	);

    and adding the corresponding function: 

    /* Jammer added */

function if_menu_is_products_page() {
return is_page('Products');
}

    the above code works if you want to ONLY show an item when on that page, to show an item when not on that page I used the following Condition and function (once again probably not as elegant as it could be): 

    $conditions[] = array(

	'name'	=>   __( 'Page is NOT Products', 'if-menu' ),
	'condition' =>	'if_menu_is__NOT_products_page'
	);
    function if_menu_is__NOT_products_page() {
if (is_page('Products') == false) return true;
	return false;

    While this seems to work ok, it does require editing the conditions.php file for each and every page title you want to add.

  • Thanks for this information, it is making my site work with several different main menus depending on the page.

    I’m running into a slight issue adding this menu to pages that are created automatically by another plugin. When I use this code it crashes my site, I have to upload the prior conditions.php to restore things.

    The code I have been trying to use is:

    $conditions[] = array(
	'name'	=>	__( 'Page is ?ee=4', 'if-menu' ),
	'condition' =>	'if_menu_is_?ee=4_page'
	);
    function if_menu_is_?ee=4_page() {
return is_page('?ee=4');
}

    I am assuming there is something going on here with the extra characters involved, “?” or “=”.

    Sounds like you are onto the issue, as I too suspect the “?” may be causing the issue. Not sure how to deal with it. I assume you have tried omitting it without success.

    First, thanks, cause what’s above is really helpful. I couldn’t understand the example conditions at all, but this is much more clear.

    Interestingly enough, I can’t get it to function for creating a condition based on being a specific category archive page.

    I implemented the same as the OP, but with the line:

    return is_page(‘Products’);

    Replaced by:

    return is_category(‘Products’);

    And the condition doesn’t show up at all as an option. It’s like I never added any code when I’m looking at my conditional menu options.

    I have added other conditions without problem. Any ideas?

    EDIT: And it turns out I hijacked a thread that was unrelated to my problem. Thought it was… sorry!

    FYI I had the return conditions below return $conditions. Moved them above and it solved it.
