Welcome, (Visitor/User) on Top Bar Menu only

  • How can I make the Welcome, Visitor/User to appear only on the top bar menu?

    function top_menu_item($items)
    {
    if(is_user_logged_in())
    {
    $user=wp_get_current_user();
    $name=$user->display_name; // or user_login , user_firstname, user_lastname
    return ‘

    • Welcome, ‘.$name.’

      • ‘ . $items;
      }
      else
      {
      return ‘

    • Welcome, Visitor

      • ‘ . $items;
      }
      //return $items;
      }
      add_filter( ‘wp_nav_menu_items’, ‘top_menu_item’);

      With the function above, the Welcome Visitor/User appears on all navigation menus, top bar menu, primary menu, footer bar menu and other navigation menu I add on widgets. I want it to appear only on top bar menu.

	$name=$user->display_name; // or user_login , user_firstname, user_lastname
	$items .= '<li><a href="">Welcome '.$name.'</a></li>';
    } else {
	$items .= '<li><a href="">Welcome Visitor</a></li>';
    }

    return $items;
}

add_filter( 'wp_nav_menu_items', 'top_menu_item');

    You have extra return statement which prevents the function to return filtered menu items.

    Please make sure you format your code properly before submitting!
    Thank you.

    Hello, sorry about the format of the code. And, thank you for the reply.

    It just moved Welcome, Visitor/User to the right side of the lists. It still appears on top bar menu, primary menu, footbar menu and widget.

    The code will put welcome user/visitor to every menu I have on my website. I found this demo site of avant https://demo.kairaweb.com/#avant. As you can see, there is a text there on the top bar menu, “A leaf”. I’m gonna change that text to Welcome plus the username when logged in.

    If I inspect the code:
    <div class=”site-top-bar-right-extra-txt”>
    A leaf </div>

    How can I add that (change it to Welcome) with the username when logged in and just input Welcome, Visitor when logged out?
