Nav-menus, "Hide" URL option for Custom links?

Maybe something like this? Untested code:

function remove_title_attr( $nav )
{
return $nav = preg_replace('/href=\"(.*?)\"/', 'href=\"#\"', $nav );
}

add_filter( 'wp_nav_menu', 'remove_title_attre' );
add_filter( 'wp_page_menu', 'remove_title_attr' );
add_filter( 'wp_list_categories', 'remove_title_attr' );

Source: https://www.socreative.tv/blog/remove-title-attributes-from-wp_nav_menu/

That removes the title on the page itself ?? I want to remove fields from the adminmenu and possibly anchors (not necessery) from the site..

No, if you look the code I posted, I edited the code there.

Doesnt do anything in the adminmenu but this appears where the menu was

Warning: call_user_func_array() expects parameter 1 to be a valid callback, function 'remove_title_attre' not found or invalid function name in E:\www\*\wp-includes\plugin.php on line 170

Sorry, I got that wrong. Where in admin panel exactly?

on wp-admin/nav-menus.php, custom links. I want to remove the url field and have it always just containing #.

Can’t you set it to # with jquery and just hide the element with display:none;?

I dont know that much jQuery. How do i change the value of #custom-menu-item-url to #? Hiding it isnt a problem, change the value is now.

Ive managed to hide it the first time, but since a new box is added when ever i add a menubutton it just appears again..

<script>
jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
  $('input#custom-menu-item-url').attr('value', '#');
});
</script>

Bump..

Anyone? :<

In the first function mentioned, there is a small typo in the code. For wp_nav_menu there is ‘remove_title_attre‘ but it should be like the rest ‘remove_title_attr’.

Also, I am not sure that regular expression is correct. It took my url ‘https://my-website/some-page&#8217; and made it ‘https://my-website/\#\’. If that’s the intent that’s fine, but I thought it would need to be href=”#”. I am not a master of regex so I can only provide a link to Smashing Mag that describes them in detail: https://coding.smashingmagazine.com/2009/06/01/essential-guide-to-regular-expressions-tools-tutorials-and-resources/.

But I believe it should be like this:

preg_replace('/href=\"(.*?)\"/', 'href="#"', $nav );

TIP: I prefer to use ‘javascript:void(0);’ to prevent any respond from a click.

So the code I used is:

function remove_title_attr( $nav )
{
return $nav = preg_replace('/href=\"http:\/\/nolink\"/', 'href="javascript:void(0);"', $nav );
}

add_filter( 'wp_nav_menu', 'remove_title_attr' );
add_filter( 'wp_page_menu', 'remove_title_attr' );

Where I simply put ‘nolink’ into a Custom URL in WordPress and it shows as href=”https://nolink&#8221; which is replaced by regular expression and transformed into href=”javascript:void(0);”.
WILL NOT WORK FOR CATEGORY LINKS THOUGH.

mYrAn – I know you’re looking to remove the link completely in your Admin side, but I cannot help you with that at the moment.
