This plugin has been replaced by Context Manager
Context Manager does the same job as Menu Rules, but comes with many more features to save you time and unnecessary coding.
Menu Rules can run alongside Context Manager while you migrate your rules across. Speak to me on Twitter if you need any help with the transfer.
About Menu Rules
In WordPress there’s no way to apply context to the menu system. Menu Rules solves this problem and gives you a framework to write your own menu extensions.
Example usage
You have an e-commerce website that has a custom post type called ‘products’. You have a page that lists products which is listed in your main menu. A user visits the page and the menu item becomes ‘active’. You click through to a product and the menu item loses its active state. This is how to fix it with menu rules:
- Install the Menu Rules plugin
- Add a menu rule
- Give it a meaningful name in the title field. This is just for administration purposes
- In the conditions field enter
is_singular( 'product' )
- Choose Emulate current page as a child but do not create a menu item. as the menu rule
- Find your products page in the menu dropdown
- Hit publish
Extending Menu Rules
- Create a class that extends
Menu_Rules_Handler
and includes ahandler
method. - Write your custom functionality
- Register your class using
add_action( 'plugins_loaded', create_function( '', 'Menu_Rules::register( "Your_Menu_Rule_Class" );' ) );
Built-in rules are found in menu-rules/rules/
