So far I am able to use a custom walker function to wp_nav_menu and achieved to generate almost all the html as above but I am unable to insert class=”dropdown-toggle” data-toggle=”dropdown” inside the tag. This will allow me to toggle the dropdown I guess (currently I am able to generate only the top menu. The submenu’s appear in html but they are not visible in browser.).
Here is my effort so far:
<!-- Main Menu -->
<div class="navbar navbar-blue navbar-fixed-top" style="margin-top:74px">
<div class="navbar-inner">
<div class="container">
<a class="btn btn-navbar" data-toggle="collapse" data-target=".nav-collapse">
<span class="icon-bar"></span>
<span class="icon-bar"></span>
<span class="icon-bar"></span>
</a>
<?php class My_Walker_Nav_Menu extends Walker_Nav_Menu {
function start_lvl(&$output, $depth) {
$indent = str_repeat("t", $depth);
$output .= "n$indent<ul class="dropdown-menu">n";
}
}
$defaults = array(
'theme_location' => '',
'menu' => '',
'container' => 'div',
'container_class' => 'nav-collapse collapse',
'container_id' => '',
'menu_class' => 'nav',
'menu_id' => '',
'echo' => true,
'fallback_cb' => 'wp_page_menu',
'before' => '',
'after' => '',
'link_before' => '',
'link_after' => '',
'items_wrap' => '<ul id="%1$s" class="%2$s"><li class="divider-vertical"></li>%3$s</ul>',
'depth' => 0,
'walker' => new My_Walker_Nav_Menu
);
wp_nav_menu( $defaults );
?>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<!-- End Main Menu -->
Can somebody help me to modify my custom walker function so as to get the desired html output given above. Thanks in advance.
You want to modify the
start_el
method as you did thestart_lvl
one. At its most basic it would mean altering this line:To look like this one:
It looks like you will need more complicated logic to avoid inserting that string in all the submenus, but that is the idea.
