  • add next function to your function.php file

    function my_custom_menu_item($items, $args)
{
    if(is_user_logged_in() && $args->theme_location == 'primary')
    {
        $user=wp_get_current_user();
        $name=$user->display_name; // or user_login , user_firstname, user_lastname
        $items .= '<li><a href="">Welcome '.$name.'</a></li>';
        $items.= //Change Password, Logout, etc
    }
    elseif (!is_user_logged_in() && $args->theme_location == 'primary') {
        $items .= '<li><a href="'. site_url('wp-login.php') .'">Log In</a></li>';
        $items.= //Sign up, Lost Password
    }
    return $items;
}
add_filter( 'wp_nav_menu_items', 'my_custom_menu_item');
