Schema for SiteNavigationElement

The output of the site navigation for Mega Menu doesn’t output the “url” & “name” tags needed for schema in http://schema.org/SiteNavigationElement.

I have edited the code in /megamenu/classes/walker.class.php on lines 130 & 138

original
```
$item_output .= '<a'. $attributes .'>';
$item_output .= '</a>';
```
edited
```
$item_output .= '<a itemprop="url"'. $attributes .'><span itemprop="name">';
$item_output .= '</span></a>';
```
I don’t want to lose my changes when this plugin updates, what kind of function can I use in my child theme to overwrite the plugin code here?

Hi sitedesigndev,

If you look at line 143 you will see the whole <li> is run through a filter.
You will need to use this filter to modify the returned value. Untested, but something like:

function add_item_props( $item_output, $item, $depth, $args ) {

    $return_value = $item_output;
    // at this point $return value will be something like
    // <li class='mega-menu-item'><a href='url'>Link name</a></li>

    // modify the return value using regex or str_replace
    // you are on your own for this bit

    return $return_value;
}
add_filter('megamenu_walker_nav_menu_start_el', 'add_item_props', 10, 4);

Regards,
Tom
