Goliath - Menu Custom Fields

Ever wanted custom fields on wordpress menu items ?

Description

With this developer oriented plugin you can add custom fields to menu items.

This plugin has been done for a custom project we're working on, so it may not suit all your needs. It's been greatly inspired from http://www.wpexplorer.com/adding-custom-attributes-to-wordpress-menus/ but does more than adding a single field.

With this plugin :

• you can have different fields for each menu locations
• you can use two kind of controls in the admin : simple text input and textarea, it shouldn't be that hard to add more controls (checkboxes, ...)

But no,

• You can't define your custom fields in the admin, you have to write code for that
• It does not work in WordPress customizer, only menu edition admin page.
• It does not include any walker for the frontend.

Installation

1. Copy the goliath-menu-custom-fields folder into your wp-content/plugins folder
2. Activate the Goliath - Menu Custom Fields plugin via the plugins admin page
3. Edit your functions.php file to instanciate the plugin's class :

// You should have this kind of code already present in your theme : function site_register_nav_menus() { register_nav_menus( array( 'main' => ('Main menu'), 'lang' => ('Language menu'), 'foot' => __('Footer menu'), ) ); } add_action('after_setup_theme', 'site_register_nav_menus');

// Then you must add and configure this code if (class_exists('goliath_menu_custom_fields')) { $menu_custom_fields = array( 'main' => array( // The key here has to match with the locations defined before 'custom-field-01' => array( // The key should not have spaces nor special characters (think slug) 'label' => ('Custom Field 1'), // The label in admin for this field 'type' => 'input', // The type : input or textarea ), 'custom-field-02' => array( 'label' => ('Custom Field 2'), 'type' => 'textarea', ), ), 'foot' => array( 'custom-field-01' => array( // If your menu is set for both main and foot locations, then this field will not be replicated 'label' => __('Custom Field 1'), 'type' => 'textarea', ), ), ); new goliath_menu_custom_fields($menu_custom_fields); }
