Yes, have a look at the FAQ. You probably want to use the walker_nav_menu_start_el filter.
Hi,
In wp-content/plugins/email-address-encoder/email-address-encoder.php I’ve changed the line :
foreach (array('the_content', 'the_excerpt', 'widget_text', 'comment_text', 'comment_excerpt') as $filter) {
with
foreach (array('walker_nav_menu_start_el', 'the_content', 'the_excerpt', 'widget_text', 'comment_text', 'comment_excerpt') as $filter) {
and it seems to work fine.
Thanks to Til 🙂
Your code change won’t survive a plugin update, it’s better to add your own custom filter:
add_filter( 'walker_nav_menu_start_el', 'eae_encode_emails' );
Ok, I just discover how to use add_filter 🙂
So I’ve copy back email-address-encoder.php.sav to email-address-encoder.php. And since I use Responsive theme from CyberChimps, here is how I customize my wp-content/themes/responsive-child-theme/header.php file.
Before :
<div id="container" class="hfeed">
<?php get_sidebar('top'); ?>
<?php wp_nav_menu(array(
'container' => '',
'theme_location' => 'header-menu')
);
?>
After :
<div id="container" class="hfeed">
<?php add_filter( 'walker_nav_menu_start_el', 'eae_encode_emails' ); ?>
<?php get_sidebar('top'); ?>
<?php wp_nav_menu(array(
'container' => '',
'theme_location' => 'header-menu')
);
?>
Seems to work fine too.
Is it the right way ?
That’s okay, but even better would be if you’d place the add_filter() code in a Must Use Plugin. That’s independent code and won’t be removed during plugin/theme updates.
Wow! What educational plugin, I didn’t know mu-plugins before 😉
So I created a file wp-content/mu-plugins/addfilter-eae.php with this code inside :
<?php add_filter( 'walker_nav_menu_start_el', 'eae_encode_emails' ); ?>
And it just works like a charm.
Many thanks Till!
