[Support request] Conditional Menus Plugin causing error?

[Michael]

Hi there,

I am trying to use conditional menus plugin (https://wordpress.org/plugins/conditional-menus/) to have different secondary menus on different pages – it works well but I lose the arrows for drop-down menus. Know of a way I can get them back?

Here’s a link to the homepage, and the page where the menu appears:

http://michaelg.co.za/renlyn (No menu)

http://michaelg.co.za/renlyn/agritech (Secondary Menu visible)

The goal is to have multiple secondary menus appear on the various sub-sections of the site.

Hi there,

Looks like it’s the plugin that is causing that.

Hmm can you try this plugin instead? https://en-ca.wordpress.org/plugins/if-menu/

Hi, has anyone found a fix to this? I am having the same issue.

The conditional menus plugin is not adding the arrow to the menus. I tried creating two new “dummy” menus in GP, then assigning these menus in WordPress. I then added these new menu names to the loop in navigation.php that adds the arrows. Still, no luck!

thanks

Hi Jon,

Unfortunately I haven’t found a fix for this yet either – haven’t tried too much yet though.

I couldn’t get the other plugin Leo suggested to work either, it didn’t do anything…

Can you link me to the page with the problem again?

Hi Leo,

The page with the Primary Menu, which works is:

The page with the conditional menu, which doesn’t work, is:

Thanks

Did you try this plugin instead?: https://en-ca.wordpress.org/plugins/if-menu/

As for the other menu, the theme will add arrows to 3 theme locations: primary, secondary and slideout. If the plugin is adding more theme locations, we would have to add them to the arrow condition with this filter: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/generate_menu_arrow_theme_locations/

This is not exacly a solution but I solved the problem simply installing Max Mega Menu. I’m not even using it but it fixed the problem. 😛

Tom, it would be great if you could provide a compatibility solution with Conditional Menu. Maybe a tutorial?
By the way: GeneratePress is an amazing theme! 🙂

Thanks!

Wow, thanks Miguel! Adding the Max Mega Menu plugin instantly fixed the problem. And, like you, I am not even using the plugin. Just having it activated seems to fix it.
