Show shortcode output in menu

Hallo @mabufoysal,

you can do this via PHP. But if you want to do that, you can try to use this plugin:

PHP Example without Plugin:

if ( ! has_filter( 'wp_nav_menu', 'do_shortcode' ) ) {
    add_filter( 'wp_nav_menu', 'shortcode_unautop' );
    add_filter( 'wp_nav_menu', 'do_shortcode', 11 );
}

Thanks @benjamin_zekavica .

Sorry, I couldn’t express myself properly. I created a Shortcode named country_name and it is working perfectly in Posts.

But I would like to use this shortcode with Menu like the screenshot. May be you are clear after check the screenshot.

This Shortcode will show a Country name.

How can I use the Shortcode with the menu like the screenshot ?

Hallo @mabufoysal,

yes use this Filter wp_nav_menu or you can write a WP Menu Walker that allows you to use Shortcodes inside the Menu. Alternative you can use the Plugin.

More Details you can find here:

Thanks @benjamin_zekavica . How to use wp_nav_menu filter ? I am using like below.

add_shortcode('country_name', 'country_name_shortcode');

function country_name_shortcode($country_name) {

    return $country_name;

}

add_filter( 'wp_nav_menu', 'country_name_shortcode' );

Just use :

if ( ! has_filter( 'wp_nav_menu', 'do_shortcode' ) ) {
 add_filter( 'wp_nav_menu', 'shortcode_unautop' );
 add_filter( 'wp_nav_menu', 'do_shortcode', 11 );
}

in addition to your shortcode coding. With the above 4 lines you activate the use of shortcode in the menu. Add them there where you add your shortcode-code.

Thanks @threadi and @benjamin_zekavica. Your solution works like Magic. Thanks.
