Conflict with Soil plugin

    Hey Sevenspark,

    I use the Soil plugin on my sites to clean up some of the clutter that WordPress generates however the Nav Walker it uses was causing Shiftnav to stop working (off-canvas panel works fine but the menu items are a simple list).

    Am I right in thinking this is because Shiftnav is expecting to find the WordPress generated menu classes that Soil is removing?

    Could I (easily) change these classes it expects to find so that I can continue using both?

    Thanks,
    Paul

    Hi Paul,

    Yeah, that markup is there for a reason, and stripping out core markup is going to create problems with many plugins and themes. There isn’t a simple way to adjust for this without rewriting the ShiftNav stylesheet. I’d recommend that you disable the plugin filters that mess with the classes/walker. While I understand the purpose behind “cleaning” the menu markup, it’s not a good idea in a modular system where plugins need to depend on the core code being present, unless you’re writing everything custom with those core changes in mind.

    Best,

    Chris
