Failed to list out sub menu items using zen subtheme.
My main menu:
-> Home
-> Product
-> men
-> female
-> about
MY PROBLEM:
-> sub menu "men" and "female" are not shown
WHAT I HAVE DONE SO FAR:
My code in page.tpl.php
<?php if ($main_menu): ?>
<?php
// This code snippet is hard to modify. We recommend turning off the
// "Main menu" on your sub-theme's settings form, deleting this PHP
// code block, and, instead, using the "Menu block" module.
// #see https://drupal.org/project/menu_block
print theme('links__system_main_menu', array(
'links' => $main_menu,
'attributes' => array(
'class' => array('links', 'inline', 'clearfix'),
),
'heading' => array(
'text' => t('Main menu'),
'level' => 'h2',
'class' => array('element-invisible'),
),
)); ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php print render($page['navigation']); ?>
I have checked "Show as expanded" for product menu item in main menu also.
Please provide me solution.

I'm trying to create custom website theme for Wordpress and I ran into a bit of a problem. I use two absolutely same menus in my header and footer part of website.
Calling
wp_nav_menu(array('theme_location' => 'header'));
in header.php works well, the menu prints out without any problem, but if I do the same in my footer.php file, the menu doesn't print and var_dump(wp_nav_menu(array('theme_location' => 'header'))); prints false.
I've tried some workarounds that I found on Google with modifying the functions.php file, but none of them helped me resolve that problem. My functions.php file now consists of only one line
register_nav_menus( array( 'header' => 'Header menu', 'footer' => 'Footer menu' ) );
and yes, I tried to use
wp_nav_menu(array('theme_location' => 'footer'))
as well, with same result. If I call the same function from header.php
wp_nav_menu(array('theme_location' => 'footer'))
the menu works good.
You have registered you two nav menus correctly. I always do that within my initial theme setup hook that gets hooked to the after_setup_theme hook. So I would do something like this in your functions.php:
function pietergoosen_theme_setup() {
register_nav_menus( array(
'header' => 'Header menu',
'footer' => 'Footer menu'
) );
}
add_action( 'after_setup_theme', 'pietergoosen_theme_setup' );
Keep in mind, you don't have to do it this way. The following also works
register_nav_menus( array(
'header' => 'Header menu',
'footer' => 'Footer menu'
) );
You should now see the two menus in the backend under "Appearance > Menus > Manage Locations" (Only if a menu exist)
For the sake of the footer menu, add the following code in your footer where you need to display the menu:
<nav id="footer-navigation" class="site-navigation footer-navigation" role="navigation">
<?php wp_nav_menu( array( 'theme_location' => 'footer', 'menu_class' => 'nav-menu', 'fallback_cb' => false ) ); ?>
</nav>
At this stage nothing will be displayed, and I think this is where you also get stuck at. The reason for this is that there aren't any items assigned to the menu, and if there are nothing assigned to a menu, then nothing will be displayed. So we have to insert something to be displayed.
In the backend, go to "Appearance > Menus > Edit Menus". In the "Menu Name" field, enter a name for your menu and click "Create Menu". You will now be able to add the menu in the menu screen.
You can now choose items from the left hand side to insert into your menu. You can also set the location of the menu, in this case in the footer. I've selected to display the categories in the footer. Click "Save Menu" when done.
You should now see your nav menu in the front end.
You just have to add styling to your nav bar now. You will do exactly the same for the header nav menu, accept you will add the call to the menu in the header.php. I hope you find this usefull.
So I’m producing my second WP theme and I’ve struck a problem. As well as the standard Nav menu at the top of my pages, the Footer element contains three individual sub-menus that can be loaded with individual entries. These are broken into three areas: Product Range, Industry Type and Services. The source code on footer.php is thus:
<div class="col-sm-3" style="float:left">
<h3>Product Range</h3>
<?php wp_nav_menu( array( 'footer' => 'product-range', 'container_class' => 'footer-menu' ) ); ?>
</div>
<div class="col-sm-3" style="float:left">
<h3>Industry Type</h3>
<?php wp_nav_menu( array( 'footer' => 'industry-type', 'container_class' => 'footer-menu' ) ); ?>
</div>
<div class="col-sm-3" style="float:left">
<h3>Services</h3>
<?php wp_nav_menu( array( 'footer' => 'services', 'container_class' => 'footer-menu' ) ); ?>
</div>
In functions.php I have included:
*Add footer Menus
*/
function register_my_menus() {
register_nav_menus(
array(
'product-range' => __( 'Product Range' ),
'industry-types' => __( 'Industry Types' ),
'services' => __( 'Services' )
)
);
}
add_action( 'init', 'register_my_menus' );
The output to all three menus is identical, and it is not what I want:

The top two items I added in the CMS, the remainder are automatically generated form somewhere else?
What gives?
I am following this guide to "Add additional support for menus in your theme":
http://codex.wordpress.org/Navigation_Menus
I followed all of the steps, but this is the result:
http://puu.sh/30bMt.png
So, it's "inserting a menu" where I told it to.... however the items on the menu do not match up with what I have in the WordPress back-end, seen here...
http://puu.sh/30bQd.png
I only inserted 4 items into the menu "Test"... but it's displaying every page, instead of the 4 items I want.
I've attempted to do research to figure out what's going on to no avail; does anybody have any insight as to why this is acting funky?
Code where I'm "registering" the additional menu support... (themes function.php):
function register_my_menus() {
register_nav_menus(
array(
'header-menu' => __( 'Header Menu' )
)
);
}
add_action( 'init', 'register_my_menus' );
Code where I'm inserting the "Header Menu" itself... (themes header.php):
<?php
wp_nav_menu( array( 'theme_location' => 'extra-menu', 'container_class' =>'my_extra_menu_class' ) );
?>
If you are trying to call 'Header Menu' then the code in your header.php should look like this:
<?php wp_nav_menu(array('theme_location' => 'header-menu', 'menu_class' => 'my_extra_menu_class')); ?>
I'm not sure where you got 'extra-menu' from but WordPress doesn't know what that is since you didn't declare that in your register_my_menus function.
I hope that helps.
Here's an example of how I've implemented multiple menus in my WordPress install:
// Register Extra Menus
function new_register_menus() {
register_nav_menus(array('Products'=>'Products Nav', 'Support'=>'Support Nav', 'Company'=>'Company Nav' , 'Footer'=>'Footer Nav'));
}
add_action( 'init' , 'new_register_menus' );
//Code in my footer.php
<?php wp_nav_menu(array('theme_location' => 'Footer', 'menu_class' => 'nav')); ?>
I'll try to be as clear as I can because it's pretty difficult to write it down...
Situation: Problem occured when working with WordPress. I have WPML (multilingual site) plugin installed and it works perfectly but the problem is that I am using this theme which has custom posts such as Homepage Text and Homepage Boxes and those two posts that appear on my homepage do not have a possibility of translating content into other languages to have that Homepage Text and Boxes in different languages (that part of the WPML plugin just doesn't appear there). Homepage Text and Homepage Boxes, those two appear on the left side of wordpress - it's a part of menu, just like Links, Pages or Comments...
I kind of came up with one way of solving this.
I created a few more of these custom posts. Now I have:
Homepage Text (home_text)
Homepage Boxes (home_boxes)
Homepage Text English (home_text_en)
Homepage Boxes English (home_boxes_en)
Homepage Text Russian (home_text_ru)
Homepage Boxes Russian (home_boxes_ru)
There are two pieces of code in index.php for these two custom posts. I'll show you one:
<div id="homepage-text">
<?php query_posts(array(
'post_type'=>'home_text',
'orderby' => 'ASC'
));
?>
<?php if ( have_posts() ) while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();?>
<h2><?php the_title() ?></h2>
<?php the_content(); ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
</div><!-- /homepage-text -->
After this, there's a similar code for Homepage Boxes...
Way of solving: Writing a code which says: "if the address you are coming from says http://www.website.eu - use homepage text and boxes that are home_text and home_boxes; If it's http://www.website.com/EN - use home_text_en, and so on... I hope you get what I'm saying..
Is here anyone who had enough time to read all of this and would be so kind and write me that piece of code that translates my words into php?
That's my guess of how should that look but I'm stugling with writing conditions.
if (condition that it's the main language directory)
{
register_post_type( 'home_text',
array(
'labels' => array(
'name' => __( 'Homepage Text' ),
'singular_name' => __( 'Homepage Text' )
),
'public' => true,
'supports' => array('title','editor')
)
);
}
elseif (condition that it's english language directory .com/en)
{
register_post_type( 'home_text_en',
array(
'labels' => array(
'name' => __( 'Homepage Text English' ),
'singular_name' => __( 'Homepage Text English' )
),
'public' => true,
'supports' => array('title','editor')
)
);
}
else
{
register_post_type( 'home_text_ru',
array(
'labels' => array(
'name' => __( 'Homepage Text Russian' ),
'singular_name' => __( 'Homepage Text Russian' )
),
'public' => true,
'supports' => array('title','editor')
)
);
}
Thank's in advance.

You can use the Page Referer function of WordPress http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_get_referer to do something like:
$page_referer_url = wp_get_referer();
if(strpos($page_referer_url,'.com/en')!==FALSE) { // Check if the text '.com/en' is part of the referer URL
// code for english
}
else {
// code for non english
}
You can find how strpos() works here http://php.net/manual/en/function.strpos.php
I've created a sub of the zen-theme. And am mighty proud of it, but up in the top right corner (#secondary-menu) the user-menu shows up - perfectly.
I just don't understand how it get's there?
In structure/blocks the user-menu appears in the Disabled section (Region: None)
In fact, there IS no region called "secondary-menu" (id of the element gotten from Firebug)
Isn't that strange?
I can't comment on your specific template files but the standard Zen page.tpl.php file has this in it:
<?php if ($secondary_menu): ?>
<nav id="secondary-menu" role="navigation">
<?php print theme('links__system_secondary_menu', array(
'links' => $secondary_menu,
'attributes' => array(
'class' => array('links', 'inline', 'clearfix'),
),
'heading' => array(
'text' => $secondary_menu_heading,
'level' => 'h2',
'class' => array('element-invisible'),
),
)); ?>
</nav>
<?php endif; ?>
Which should answer how the menu gets printed to the page. If you want to dig one step deeper, the $secondary_menu variable is set up in template_preprocess_page().
As to why it's the user menu...if you go to admin/structure/menu/settings you should see this:
If you change the secondary link source to something else you should see that reflected in your theme too.
How do I get the nav menu list through the menu name in Wordpress?
I'm using the following code but it's showing all pages and is not using the custom nav menu name
<?php wp_page_menu('sort_column=ID&sort_order=desc;');?>
Thanks for helping.
you should register your menu in your functions.php file and add it to init.
register_nav_menu( 'header', __( 'Header Menu', 'twentyeleven' ) );
And you can display anywhere this menu as below :
wp_nav_menu( array( 'theme_location' => 'header','container' => false,'menu_id' => 'nav' ) );
First of all,
you should really assign the menu in your functions.php file and add it to init. Something like this should do:
function register_my_menus()
{
register_nav_menus(array( 'main-menu' => __( 'Main Menu' ) ) );
}
add_action( 'init', 'register_my_menus' );
Then in you wordpress theme you simple call it like so:
wp_nav_menu(array('menu_id' => '',
'menu_class' => '',
'container' => '',
'theme_location' => 'main-menu'
));
You can fill in classes, or menu ids you need, important thing is the "main-menu" clausole displaying menu you created.
Now you just need to go to your wordpress admin > appearence > menus, select your menu from the top tab list, and assing it to theme location, on right-hand side. Where it says "Theme Locations", just select "Main Menu" from the dropdown list, and hit save.
Hope this helps.
