Still works, but not healthy
by lowercase99·2 months ago
I have been using If Menu for some time and it is perfect for limiting and/or permitting, access depending on any combination of subscription, Role or logged In/logged Out HOWEVER although it is still functioning, access to “Appearance > Menu” is very slow and the connection will most often timeout. This means you cannot update the configuration. If Menu has not been updated for some time and it may no longer be compatible with recent versions of WordPress (I am running v6.9) This is unfortunate as I cannot find another solution that offers the same functionality
UPDATE – I have switched to “User Menus – Nav Menu Visibility” by By Code Atlantic and although it seems to be of the same vintage as IF Menu (has not been updated in over a year) it appears to be fully functional and has almost the same functionality as IF Menu

No funciona, no deja acceder al menu, hace que se caiga el servidor
Disable “enable in admin panel” when using WPML Menu Sync
by t0b1hh·11 months ago
On /wp-admin/themes.php?page=if-menu uncheck “Enabled in Admin panel”. Otherwise WPML’s menu sync won’t work properly and for example “hide when logged in” menu items won’t sync
Worked well for my basic need
by lausianne·11 months ago
All I needed was to hide menu items from visitors. Probably overkill, but it worked well and easy for that.
