@sixstringseraph Glad it was helpful.
You could use this format to prepend the link to existing menu items instead of appending it:
if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {
$items = '<li class="menu-item"><a href="'. wp_logout_url() .'">Log Out</a></li>' . $items;
} else {
$items = '<li class="menu-item"><a href="'. site_url('wp-login.php') .'">Log In</a></li>' . $items';
}
The original line:
$items .= '<li class="menu-item"><a href="'. wp_logout_url() .'">Log Out</a></li>';
is shorthand for:
$items = $items . '<li class="menu-item"><a href="'. wp_logout_url() .'">Log Out</a></li>';
To reverse them, you swap the $items
and the new menu link HTML.
Hey Nick! Thanks for the code snippet :-)
I ended up adding a redirect to my code so members were redirected to my member dashboard when logging in, and then the home page when logging out.
if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {
$items = $items . '<li class="menu-item"><a href="'. wp_logout_url( home_url() ) .'">Log Out</a></li>';
} else {
$items = $items . '<li class="menu-item"><a href="'. site_url('wp-login.php/?redirect_to='. home_url( '/member-dashboard/')) .'">Log In</a></li>';
}
I used home_url
for the redirect, rather than site_url
, as I have a sub folder going on in my set up.
I'm sure it could be extended to redirect to the permalink the member was on or to any of the other interesting places on my website!
Nice addition, @MissAmeliaSmith! Thanks for sharing it here.
Here's another way to do it wp_loginout https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_loginout
Thanks so much for this! Using it taught me quite a bit on the genesis customization. I have one question though. How would you make it so the added item is listed first rather than appended to the end?
