Comment on WordPress wp_nav_menu to Exclude Page(s) by Ehsan

Jacob, thanks for your comment. I believe 3.3.1 or from an earlier version WP added that. When I worked on it and created this “hack” I went through their documentation and couldn’t find the exclude option, therefore, I had to do this. Moreover, I know the way I’ve done it was wrong because of the reason you mentioned, upgrade will break it. But once I started working on WP more I realised there are other ways you can do it, add action, add hook etc are the ways to deal with your customized function behaviour.

As developer/programmer we do/create lot of works/hacks which becomes obsolete in future. Not sure if it was my hack which inspired WP to add the “exclude” option or not but it is good to see the option is there by default now.

Many thanks for your post it was a great help. One thing to mention
is that you have executed a lot of additional work.

In the wp_nav_menu() function it checks for any applied menus, if you
did not create a menu it will use a user_callback.

The default is ‘wp_page_menu’ the callback also uses the $args variable to
pass to the wp_page_menu() function of which it accepts the exclude variable.

So to cut a long story short there is no need to hack anything (hacking is a pretty
bad idea as after an upgrade is completed things tend to stop working) just
add an exclude option to your wp_nav_menu() statement and that’s it done.

(note the information expressed above is based on the use of WordPress 3.31)

I am looking for a plugin that will allow me to display the page update information where I want, not at a forced predetermined location.

Will your plugin allow this?

Hi Ehsan!
First, thank you for your helpfull Post.
I implement the code from your website and it works fine, but only in the default-menu.
If i choose a menu with a theme_location parameter (like: ‘theme_location’ => ‘secondary’),
it don’t exclude the registered sites in the ‘exclude’ parameter.

Another question is the ‘wp_nav_menu_excludes’ hook. For what or where do i need it?

wordpressversion: 3.2.1 , modified theme: Twenty Eleven 1.2
thanks! torte

I’m building a website for condo units, when I had to create a page which I didn’t want to be included in my nav menu. Thanks for this post, I found that I need to use the argument 'exclude' => $id in order to do just that.

I believe I spent some of my great days with you. Soon after joining the company, you became a friend from a colleague.. which is really rare. I still remember those days, we did lots fun. I wish you all the best and a very happy family life…wherever you stay, stay cool.
