i18n menu entries - registration - 2015-03-28
Hello forum!
I am running a template with an i18n menu on the side, which I configured using
Code:
get_i18n_navigation(return_page_slug(),0,99,I18N_SHOW_LANGUAGE)This works well. However, many users of the template wish for a not-so-simple thing: They want dummy menu entries to structure their sites like this:
menu_entry1 -> links to page 1
sub_menu_entry1 -> links to page 2
menu_entry2 -> links to nothing, keeps old content displayed
sub_menu_entry_2 -> links to page 3
So, is it possible to have menu entries without a linked page (dummies),
in a way that the GetSimple users can edit these entries conveniently?
I've searched the net for a long time for this now, and I'm running out of keywords to query...

you mean dummy pages, or dummy parents.

Dummy parents. I searched for this term on the net and on this forum as well, zero results (besides this thread).

I think there is a plugin called child menus or something.

Or if you want to replace dummy pages' links by "#":

If you simply want to have the parent (ie landing) pages not pointing to a link, I did a custom function a while ago for a client; might work for you, eventually with some tweaking:
Code:
function i18nMenuNoLandingPages($links, $loop = 0) {
$y = count($links);
static $str = '';
$str = $str . '<ul>';
for ($x = 0; $x < $y ; $x++) {
$item = $links[$x];
$str = $str . '<li>';
if ($item['haschildren']) {
$str = $str . '<a>' . $item['title'] . '</a>';
$str = i18nMenuNoLandingPages($item['children'], $loop++, $str);
} else if ($item['haschildren'] === false) {
$str = $str . '<a href="' . $item['url'] . '">' . $item['title'] . '</a>';
}
$str = $str . '</li>';
}
$str = $str . '</ul>';
return $str;
}Launch like so:
Code:
$nav = return_i18n_menu_data(return_page_slug(),0,5,I18N_SHOW_NORMAL);
i18nMenuNoLandingPages($nav);The $loop variable is for the levels of nesting you want to make parent pages 'linkless'.
