I’m using the following code to add an edit profile link in the menu. But it adds it to All menus, I have a top, main and footer menu. I just want it added to the top menu. Any help?

// Filter wp_nav_menu() to add profile link
add_filter( 'wp_nav_menu_items', 'my_nav_menu_profile_link' );
function my_nav_menu_profile_link($menu , $args) {
    if (is_user_logged_in() && $args->theme_location == 'primary')
        return $menu;
    else
        $current_user = wp_get_current_user();
        $user=$current_user->user_nicename ;
        $profilelink = '<li><a href="/forums/users/' . $user . '/edit">Edit Profile</a></li>';
        $menu = $menu . $profilelink;
        return $menu;
  
}

probably this should work

// Filter wp_nav_menu() to add profile link
add_filter( 'wp_nav_menu_items', 'my_nav_menu_profile_link' );

function my_nav_menu_profile_link($menu , $args) {
    if (is_user_logged_in() && $args->theme_location == 'primary') {
        $current_user = wp_get_current_user();
        $user=$current_user->user_nicename ;
        $profilelink = '<li><a href="/forums/users/' . $user . '/edit">Edit Profile</a></li>';
        $menu = $menu . $profilelink;
    }
	return $menu;
  
}

That code gives me this error in all 3 menus. I just want Edit Profile in the top menu.

Warning: Missing argument 2 for my_nav_menu_profile_link(), called in /home/wp_5fnr6w/my site/wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php on line 300 and defined in /home/wp_5fnr6w/my site/wp-content/themes/unicon/functions.php on line 749

If I remove “&& $args->theme_location == ‘primary'” and ” , $args”

The error goes away but I have Edit Profile in all three menus.

Maybe the problem is “primary” is not one of my 3 menus? How do I get the menu slugs?

[daileycon]

Ok I found my menu slugs in my functions file.

// Add Custom Primary Navigation
function minti_register_custom_menu() {
	register_nav_menu('main_navigation', 'Main Navigation');
	register_nav_menu('footer_navigation', 'Footer Navigation');
	register_nav_menu('topbar_navigation', 'Topbar Navigation');
}

but I still get that error when changing primary to topbar_navigation

// Filter wp_nav_menu() to add profile link
add_filter( 'wp_nav_menu_items', 'my_nav_menu_profile_link' );
function my_nav_menu_profile_link($menu , $args) {
    if (is_user_logged_in() && $args->theme_location == 'topbar_navigation')
        return $menu;
    else
        $current_user = wp_get_current_user();
        $user=$current_user->user_nicename ;
        $profilelink = '<li><a href="/forums/users/' . $user . '/edit">Edit Profile</a></li>';
        $menu = $menu . $profilelink;
        return $menu;
}

I DID IT!!!! Now this adds an edit profile link in my top bar menu only if someone is logged in! Whooo hooo

add_filter( 'wp_nav_menu_items', 'your_custom_menu_item', 10, 2 );
function your_custom_menu_item ($menu , $args ) {
    if (is_user_logged_in() && $args->theme_location == 'topbar_navigation') {
        $current_user = wp_get_current_user();
        $user=$current_user->user_nicename ;
        $profilelink = '<li><a href="/forums/users/' . $user . '/edit">Edit Profile</a></li>';
        $menu = $menu . $profilelink;
    }
    return $menu;
}

great – sorry I missed the 10,2 in my original post !!

Glad you got it figured out. I just created this very simple plugin to print the profile url via shortcode in case you find it useful
