So I’ll post what I have here for anyone who might be looking for something similar! * 1) Add the menu and it’s submenu normally through the dashboard (Appearance - > Menu). Name the parent menu with a placeholder name/identifier. In my case,# profile_name# (See screenshot) at [http://imgur.com/a/Ffavj](http://imgur.com/a/Ffavj) * 2) Add the following code to your theme’s ‘function.php’ * ``` // Replace "My Profile" with user firstname + lastname function give_profile_name(){ $user=wp_get_current_user(); $name=$user->user_firstname; if (!empty($user->user_lastname)) { $name .= " " . substr($user->user_lastname, 0, 1) . "."; } if(empty($name)) { $name = "My Profile"; return $name; } else { return $name; } } add_shortcode('profile_name', 'give_profile_name'); add_filter( 'wp_nav_menu_objects', 'my_dynamic_menu_items' ); function my_dynamic_menu_items( $menu_items ) { foreach ( $menu_items as $menu_item ) { if ( '#profile_name#' == $menu_item->title ) { global $shortcode_tags; if ( isset( $shortcode_tags['profile_name'] ) ) { // Or do_shortcode(), if you must. $menu_item->title = call_user_func( $shortcode_tags['profile_name'] ); } } } return $menu_items; } ``` * This replaces the placeholder name/identifier with the logged-in user’s first name + first letter of his last name. If he does not have either a first name or last name saved, it will show as “My Profile” instead. * *The checking of whether a user is logged in or not here is handled by another plugin I have “User Menu” * Thank you so much once again sumithsuku11! * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [How do I add new links to menu](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-do-i-add-new-links-to-menu/) * Thread Starter [locomoco](https://wordpress.org/support/users/locomoco/) * (@locomoco) * [8 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-do-i-add-new-links-to-menu/page/2/#post-9197861) * Thanks smithsuku11! * I found another post that seems to be similar to what I am trying to achieve so I’ll see if I can understand and use that. * [https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/196453/displaying-logged-in-user-name-in-wordpress-menu](https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/196453/displaying-logged-in-user-name-in-wordpress-menu) * Thanks again! * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [How do I add new links to menu](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-do-i-add-new-links-to-menu/) * Thread Starter [locomoco](https://wordpress.org/support/users/locomoco/) * (@locomoco) * [8 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-do-i-add-new-links-to-menu/page/2/#post-9197753) * The menu on the top (Main navigation).

It looks like this (screenshot attached) at the moment( with the list of links upon hover of “My profile”. But instead of “My profile”, I’m hoping to have it show the logged-in user’s first and last name instead. * Sorry about breaking the forum rules! * > [View post on imgur.com](https://imgur.com/a/lyapq) - This reply was modified 8 years, 11 months ago by [locomoco](https://wordpress.org/support/users/locomoco/). * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [How do I add new links to menu](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-do-i-add-new-links-to-menu/) * Thread Starter [locomoco](https://wordpress.org/support/users/locomoco/) * (@locomoco) * [8 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-do-i-add-new-links-to-menu/#post-9197623) * Yikes, that sounds complicated..
