How to add shortcode into navigation
6 replies · Started by Blake on May 10, 2017
I am having issues adding a beaver builder short code into the navigation menu. Currently I am using the following hook:
add_action( 'generate_inside_navigation','addnavshortcode' );
function addnavshortcode() { ?>
[fl_builder_insert_layout slug="header1"]
<?php }
The goal is to add beaver builder elements within the navigation tag above and below the menu listing.
Hi Blake,
This might help: https://generatepress.com/forums/topic/shortcode-assigned-to-menu-custom-link/#post-235400
Thank you for the reply. The plugin that accomplishes this task is over 2 years old. To accomplish the task described above I was hoping this could be solved by inputting a small snippet of code through the Generatepress hook system. If this can be accomplished can I please receive assistance. If it is not possible an explanation of why would be very helpful.
Can you try using the method here to execute the shortcode?

Let me know.
Thank you for the help. I incorporated the do_shortcode function as you suggested into my hook function. Now it works.
<?php
add_action( 'generate_inside_navigation','addnavshortcode' );
function addnavshortcode() {
echo do_shortcode( '[fl_builder_insert_layout slug="header1"]' );
}
?>
Thanks for the question :)
Glad I could help!
