woocommerce: customize WC-menu-item cart template

Hi there,

That element is filtered into the menu items.

Where exactly are you wanting to hook into? After the menu item, or inside of it?

Hi Tom,
thanks for your fast reply, I would like to hook inside the menu-item, right after the opening li-tag.

Unfortunately there is no hook in that location at the moment. I've added a note to look at adding one in GPP 1.9.

What are you trying to add there?

I created a small conditional logged-in-menu with php (Hi [name], my account, logout) and I want it to be displayed left from the cart. No I inserted it with the inside-navigation hook, but I had to place it with css per "absolute", so when the cart changes his width there is too much space.
No sure if there is a better solution...

Ah, well we filter the wc menu item into the menu, so you can use the same method:

add_filter( 'wp_nav_menu_items', function( $nav, $args ) {
    if ( 'primary' === $args->theme_location ) {
        return sprintf(
            '%1$s
            <li class="your-menu-item-class">
                Your menu item code in here
            </li>',
            $nav
        );
    }

    return $nav;
}, 5, 2 );

Let me know if you need more info :)

Thank you, I'm new to filters and programming in general, so as I inserted your code there was a new menu-point added but I don't know how to move it inside an existing one (the woocommerce-menu-point) what I originally wanted to do. It has to be inside so that I can place it correctly.

But now I see that even this won't help me because in the mobile-version the cart-icon is added in a different way and my code would disappear.

I will do it with the "inside-navigation"-hook and try to position it as precise as possible with CSS.

Thank you very much anyway!

I'll see if I can add a filter in GPP 1.9 to make it easier to prepend/append items to the menu item :)
