primary nav in footer

Hi Marcel,

You can add a Custom Menu widget and a Search widget in one of the Footer Widgets area in Dashboard > Appearance Widget.

Let me know if this helps.

Hi Leo,

I've already tried that. It did not quite satisfy my ambitious eye...
You know, when arranged inline in the primary navigation, search-button on the far right, the menu looks exactely the way I like it.
I just want to put that horizontal bar in the footer-bar (sorry for not describing that precisely in my
initial question).

I am aiming for an appearance with fixed header and fixed footer-bar (already managed that with the hooks add-on). The content (blog posts, fully shown) is scrolled through between those two areas.
I intend to attach two images with their bottom to the top-edge of the footer-bar (one to the far left, one to the far right of the screen - another challenge I have not yet mastered), so the contend seems to scroll up from behind those 'foreground'-images.
The footer-bar with those two images graphically becomes the 'center of gravity' - so I'd like to have my 4 links (and that nice and tiny magnifying-glass-search-button) down-there as well.

I hope my description is understandable as the site is not yet online and I therefore am not able to SHOW you, what the heck I'm talking about, here....

Thanks for giving it a try, anyway!

Marcel

Have you tried adding the Custom Menu widget in the new Footer Bar widget area? Then it should be inline?

Definitely not easy to picture what you are after. A screenshot or examples from other sites maybe helpful :)

I did.
It's okay. But the search-button was missing.

How can I send you a screenshot?

You can upload it to https://postimage.io/ and post the direct link here.

There you go:

Thw primary menu is visible at the top of the page.
The menu inside the footer-bar lacks the search-icon.

If you want to move the actual primary navigation, you can do this:

add_action('after_setup_theme','tu_move_navigation');
function tu_move_navigation()
{
      remove_action( 'generate_after_header', 'generate_add_navigation_after_header', 5 );
      add_action( 'generate_before_footer', 'generate_add_navigation_after_header', 5 );
}

This assumes your primary navigation is set to the below the header in the Customizer.

Hi, Tom.
That looks very much like the snippet I found (and lost again) earlier in the support-forum.

I don't have the slightest idea, where to insert it, though.
Just getting started with WordPress. Sorry.

Adding PHP: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/adding-php/

I created a snippet using the code snippets plugin.
Doesn't seem to have changed anything though.
Do I have to clear the footer-bar first?

Just tested the code and it's working for me.

Shouldn't matter if you have existing content in footer bar already.

Is the Navigation Location set to Below Header in Customizer > Layout > Primary Navigation?

Make sure the code snippet is actually activated.

Then make sure your primary navigation is set to Below Header.

Just to jump in here regarding Code Snippets. The "Save Changes" button is what got me the first time using it; nothing seemed to change when I clicked it. Then I read the button beside it ... "Save Changes and Activate" .... that's the one to click :)
