Hello,
I appreciate you taking the time to suggest improvements!
However you could easily create those links yourself with the custom link menu item. Just copy and paste a filtered pages url and you’re done. Regarding highlighting, thats a bit trickier as that’s entirely handled by WordPress. In order to let wordpress automatically highlight those menu items one would have to create a custom walker for one’s menu.
I think it’s a far stretch to highjack a themes menu with a custom walker just for this functionality. As for having an easier way to create those links there poses a few big challenges which all boils down to the amount of variations possible.
Let’s say you have a post type with 4 different taxonomies and in each taxonomy you have 20 terms (quite reasonable, some might have less some might have more) you’d be looking at 4845 possible combinations. I can’t possibly create a link option for each one. But okay, say we just want the one term.. no combinations of terms. that would still result in 80 link options which would have to be dynamically calculated each time you visit the menu settings page. I have seem users with more than 50 terms in 4-5 taxonomies.. you get the idea ??
All in all I don’t think this is a highly requested feature and you can almost just as easy create a custom link of your own when needed so I’m afraid for now this is not something that will be coded into the plugin ??
