   So, I have 2 menus. One for the public and another that I would like employees to see when they are logged in. The employee menu would replace the main menu only when an employee is logged in.

   Here is what I am currently using in my functions.php file

   // Set the Role as a body class

   function add_role_to_body( $classes ) {

   $user = wp_get_current_user();

   $user_roles = $user->roles;
   foreach( $user_roles as $role ) {
   $classes[] = ‘role-‘ . $role;
   }

   return $classes;

   }

   add_filter( ‘body_class’, ‘add_role_to_body’ );

   ***Here is what I added for CSS***

   /* First hide the menu items for non “employee” user */
   #top-menu li.menu-for-employee {
   display: none;
   }

   /* Show the menu items for the “employee” user */
   .role-employee #top-menu li.menu-for-employee {
   display: initial;
   }

   When I log in as an employee both menus are showing.

   Thanks in advance.

   Hi Guys,

   I nice tutorial but i was wondering could you use the same approach to replace a responsive menu at a certain screen size?

   I have two menus but would rather have just one responsive menu at 768 px by replacing the menu with another.

   Thanks

   Awesome job with your guides. I am building my first wordpress site and I am finding your site incredibly helpful in guiding me along, thank you.

   I really wanted to show different menus for logged in users (like ‘edit profile’) and for logged out users and that brought me here. The code you shared works alright for me. I now have two menus which are showing up nice. However, the last part of the code, add filter string, I believe, is messing me up a little bit. Now, another menu is showing under the sidebar widget. The ‘logged-in’ menu. I am using sydney theme and I have tried to no avail to remove this unnecessary menu. Any idea on how I can make it not display?

     Hi Pet,

     Please check Appearance » Widgets page to see if you have a custom menu added as a widget there. If it is there then you can just delete that widget.

    When you modify the functions.php like so- wouldn’t it get wiped when you upgrade your WP next version ?

    Responder

    • WPBeginner Support

      Yes, it will get wiped out when you update your theme. To prevent this you can create a site-specific plugin.

      You can lock pages to hide them from logged out users. There are several plugins that make this very easy to do. Users Ultra comes to mind.

    However, I still have the issue of a repeated primary menu in the secondary navigation menu section which I can’t seem to remove (I don’t have a secondary menu set up).

      I’m having the exact issue. The change reflects in the secondary menu location out of nowhere and I too don’t have a secondary menu setup. :/ Please advice how to deal with it.

    LISTEN!!!

    Most of us, uses themes.
    So first go to the functions.php of your theme.
    Search with navigation as keyword.

    In case of Shopkeeper theme..

    ==================================================================
    register_nav_menus( array(
    ‘top-bar-navigation’ => __( ‘Top Bar Navigation’, ‘shopkeeper’ ),
    ‘main-navigation’ => __( ‘Main Navigation’, ‘shopkeeper’ ),
    ‘footer-navigation’ => __( ‘Footer Navigation’, ‘shopkeeper’ ),
    ===================================================================

    This is how you look.. so pick the one which is primary, In my case, Its “Top Bar Navigation” hence used “top-bar-navigation”

    I used the following code and worked like a charm!!!

    This is my way of thanking the author.

    Good day !!

    Here’s what worked for me with WP . I used this to create a specific primary menu for logged-in Buddypress users. It will NOT affect my footer menu OR social media menu for any visitors, so everyone sees the same secondary menus regardless of whether they’re logged in or not. This is based on all of the comments above (HT to Fransiska!).

    Added the following to my Child Theme’s functions.php file:

    // CHANGE MAIN MENU =ONLY= IF MEMBER IS LOGGED IN

    function my_wp_nav_menu_args( $args = ” ) {
    if ($args[‘theme_location’] == ‘primary’) {
    if( is_user_logged_in()) {
    $args[‘menu’] = ‘logged-in’;
    }else{
    $args[‘menu’] = ‘logged-out’;
    }
    }
    return $args;
    }

    add_filter( ‘wp_nav_menu_args’, ‘my_wp_nav_menu_args’ );

    Hello,
    I added this code (probably wrongly) in my functions.php within my theme in wordpress editor and now I have a constant 500 server error. Even after removing the code.

    Before this i attempted to create a site specific plugin but that didnt work. Could you please tell me if the snippet requires an opening and closing bracket?
    If so how do i do that?
    My host cant help me now and they’re requesting I pay a programmer to help me for 50Eu per hour. Please help me. Its urgent.
    I am still logged into wordpress but what ever I click I get the 500 error with this specific error.
    PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘}’ in line 1194.
    This is because I pasted the snippet after all the text in the functions.php file.
    I then removed the snippet to see if that would fix it, via editor and FTP and I still get the error.
    I look forward to hearing your response.
    Kind regards

    • WPBeginner Support

      It depends on where you are adding the code. If there is a closing PHP tag before it then you need to add a php start tag like <?php

      If this code is the last thing in the functions file then you don’t need to add a closing tag.

    If you have multiple menu locations and want to apply different menus for each location you can use the code bellow:

    function my_wp_nav_menu_args( $args = ” ) {

    // Primary menu location
    if( ‘primary-main’ == $args[‘theme_location’] ) {

    if( is_user_logged_in() ) {
    $args[‘menu’] = ‘Primary-Logged-In’;
    } else {
    $args[‘menu’] = ‘Primary-Logged-Out’;
    }

    return $args;
    }

    // Secondary menu location
    if( ‘secondary-menu’ == $args[‘theme_location’] ) {

    if( is_user_logged_in() ) {
    $args[‘menu’] = ‘Secondary-Logged-In’;
    } else {
    $args[‘menu’] = ‘Secondary-Logged-Out’;
    }

    return $args;

    }

    }
    add_filter( ‘wp_nav_menu_args’, ‘my_wp_nav_menu_args’ );

    I think it is better to use IF MENU plugin. https://wordpress.org/plugins/if-menu/

    Creating two separate menus like this, use has to create/update menu twice.

    Responder

    • Chris

      Hi Gaurang,
      I’m curious to know why you feel using the plugin is better, than coding the functions.php file? I was told a while ago to watch how many plugins are actually used for a wordpress site, and the code above seems simple enough; minus the having to monitor every time your theme updates….

      Thanks,

32. WPBeginner Staff

    Under Appearance > Menus you need to choose a location for your menu. Seems like there are two areas on your site where you can add menus. So you need to create two different menus and then assign a location to them.

    • Heather Gile

      what would the revised code for this be, if there was a distinction of ‘Primary’ and ‘Top’?
      $args[‘primary-menu’] = ‘logged-in’;
      $args[‘top-menu’] = ‘logged-in’;

      else

      $args[‘primary-menu’] = ‘logged-out’;
      $args[‘top-menu’] = ‘logged-out’;

      ?

    Thanks for this.

    On the homepage, menu names that have a submenu (a drop-down menu) do not show the drop-down. When I go to any other page that isn’t my homepage, this isn’t a problem, and all menu items are shown.

    This is the case on the homepage for both logged-in and logged-out items. Any idea how to fix this? Thanks

    Only changing a certain menu can be achieved by changing $args[‘menu’] = ‘logged-in’;
    into $args[‘secondary-menu’] = ‘logged-in’; for example. Should do the trick!

    Responder

    • DANIEL

      That code doesn’t work. I have registered a ‘primary-menu’ and ‘secondary-menu’ and trying the function provided with your change in args no menú changes.

      I fix this using this code:

      function my_wp_nav_menu_args( $args = ” ) {
      if ($args[‘theme_location’] == ‘secondary-menu’) {
      if( is_user_logged_in()) {
      $args[‘menu’] = ‘logged-in’;
      }else{
      $args[‘menu’] = ‘logged-out’;
      }
      }else{
      $args[‘menu’] = ‘Principal’;
      }
      return $args;
      }

      add_filter( ‘wp_nav_menu_args’, ‘my_wp_nav_menu_args’ );

      NOTE: ‘ Principal is the name of the primary static menu.

        So close, both my footer and main menus are changing. I’m trying to just change my footer menu. I’ve tried so many variations of this code but no dice. Any solution thoughts?

        When I inspected my theme with Firebug it said my footer is “id=footer-nav”. Should I use this name rather than “secondary-menu”?

        Many Thanks

      Zaman WordPress menus have locations assigned to them. Make sure you are using a different menu for the footer menu location.

        Fransiska, can you explain your suggestion further? I have several sub-menus I’m putting in sidebars, and the solution on this page makes all those short menus now full menus with all of the Primary menu names, none of my various custom menus. Your suggestion sounds like we can apply this trick to just the primary menu position, not the sidebars. Make sense? Can you provide the full code? I’m not having any luck guessing on how it goes together.

    Hi, thanks for that, most helpful. though I’m still not sure where to put the code?
    (After creating the menus, add this code in your theme’s functions.php file or a site-specific plugin) – where is the functions.php file?
    cheers

    Responder

    • WPBeginner Support

      Go to Appearance » Editor you will see functions.php file in the list of files on your right hand. However, if you do not see a functions.php file there, then this means you are using a theme framework or a child theme. In that case you need to create a site specific plugin for your site and add this code inside that plugin. See our guide on site-specific plugin.
