WP Explorers Adapt theme: Add a submenu button

    Hi. I have added the follow piece of code to the functions.php file. This adds a specific button to the main menu if the user is logged in, and another if he isn’t.

    // Change menu button when logged in
add_filter('wp_nav_menu_main-menu_items', 'menu_add_admin_buttons', 20, 2); 

function menu_add_admin_buttons( $items, $args ) {
  $btn_format = '<li class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page"><a href="%s">%s</a></li>';
  if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {
    $btn = sprintf($btn_format, 'https://url1', __('Your profile') );
  } else {
    $btn = sprintf($btn_format, 'https://url2', __('Log In') );
  }
  return $items . $btn;
}

    How can I alter this a bit or copy it with changes, so it adds a SUBMENU button to one of my menu buttons, only if the logged in user is an ADMIN?

    Solved. This is a method:

    // Change menu button when logged in
add_filter('wp_nav_menu_main-menu_items', 'menu_add_admin_buttons', 20, 2); 

function menu_add_admin_buttons( $items, $args ) {
	$btn_format = '<li class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page"><a href="%s">%s</a>%s</li>';

	$admin_btns_format = '<ul class="sub-menu">';
	$admin_btns_format .= '<li class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page"><a href="https://url3">Submenu button</a></li>';
	$admin_btns_format .= '</ul>';

	// If logged in
	if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {

		// If admin
		if(current_user_can('has_admin_rights')) // I have added this one my self. You can use fx 'edit_pages' instead
			$submenu_btns = $admin_btns_format;
		else
			$submenu_btns = '';

		$btn = sprintf($btn_format, 'https://url1', __('Your profile'), __($submenu_btns) );

	// If not logged in
	} else {
		$btn = sprintf($btn_format, 'https://url2', __('Log In'), '' );
	}
	return $items . $btn;
}
