Using the Custom Menu widget

    Hello! I wonder if I can use this plugin to call a custom menu inside of a post.
    What is the correct way to do this?

    Let’s say I have already created a custom menu, with the name Test Menu.

    I have tried [widget classname=”WP_Nav_Menu_Widget” instance=”menu=Test Menu”] but my guess is that that I am doing something wrong…

    Can I invoke this widget just like it, or should I put it in a sidebar, then invoke the sidebar name?

  • Hi Mpampirina

    the instance name from the menu widget is nav_menu

    i have tested it with WP 3.9, a menu called ‘test’ and this call

    [widget classname="WP_Nav_Menu_Widget" instance="nav_menu=test"]

    Regards,
    Frank
