Custom menu per page

I’m a bit confused about the syntax…

The article you linked to indicates that the shortcodes should work when placed on the page itself (unless I misread). Doing so only places the shortcode on the page as text.

May I ask the exact syntax if I desired to place this in header.php?

As an example:
<?php echo do_shortcode(‘[responsive_menu_pro menu_to_use=”menu1″ menu_title=”example”]’); ?>;

How does header.php know which specific page this code would apply to? OR is there a header.php associated with each page that I’m simply unaware of?

Thanks so much for the help :),

I needed lots of different menus for different pages, and only to be displayed when logged in.

For others that might be interested, here is what worked for me, don’t know if it’s “proper” as I’m new at this, but it did work:

	        <?php

		$pagerange1 = range(310, 360); //page id range variable
		$pagerange2 = range(1000, 1400); // page id range variable
		
		if (is_user_logged_in() && is_page( $pagerange1 )){ //if user is logged in and on pagerange1, run menu1
			echo do_shortcode('[responsive_menu_pro menu_to_use="menu1"]'); }
		elseif (is_user_logged_in() && is_page( $pagerange1 )){ //if user is logged in and on pagerange2, run menu2
			echo do_shortcode('[responsive_menu_pro menu_to_use="menu2"]'); }
		elseif (is_user_logged_in()) { //if user is logged in, run main menu
				echo do_shortcode('[responsive_menu_pro menu_to_use="main"]');
			}
		?>

I’m using your menu in a unique way I suspect. I’m not using it as a “menu” but more as a course navigation tool. I have pages set up for a course, each course has 10 topics (for example). If a person is on topic 5, I want them to open the navigation menu, and be able to select other topics. I’ve added a back link in each menu to take them to the homepage. I’m currently at 3 page ranges deep, but as you can imagine… depending on the amount of courses I have, this might get crazy. Haha.

Alternatively, I was thinking we could use the is_tag function, and apply a unique tag to every post in a course. I’m still learning and trying different things. 🙂

You could do it that way, but I don’t find it as aesthetically pleasing depending on the size of the menu. It means you would see everything else, other than just the course navigation. I was kinda going for a cleaning look, whereby one “entered” into a course. The menu than displays only information relevant to that specific course. Does that make sense? 🙂
