adding menu link to ap-admin-bar

[Jonbie]

I have tried everything from plugins to custom code and i just cant make it work. I am looking to get a “http:///mywebsite.com/forums” (called View Forums) menu option into my wp-admin-bar dropdown menu under the forums tab dropdown menu.

my site is nearly ready to go and this is the one thing i am struggling to finish,

Thanks for the help!

This plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/custom-admin-bar/ “Custom Admin Bar” will do what you have described

thanks for getting back to me Kieran. i have that installed a the moment as i wanted to remove the them options links etc (so as not to allow users access to the backend of the website)

Unfortunately it only adds a link to the bar and not to the forums sub menu. In the dropdown menu there is a tab labeled “forums” when you hover over this it expands and gives you 4 options (none of which are to view the forum page which i found very strange) These menus were there by default after i installed bb press.

i am looking to add a view forums tab to the forums sub menu.

Is this possible?

Hi, This function added to kleo-child/functions.php and having the kleo child theme active will add a submenu to that forums menu:

COPY CODE

add_filter('bp_forums_admin_nav','kleo_my_forums_menu');
function kleo_my_forums_menu($wp_admin_nav) {
	$wp_admin_nav[] = array(
		'parent' => 'my-account-forums',
		'id'     => 'my-account-forums-root',
		'title'  => __( 'Forum', 'bbpress' ),
		'href'   => '/forums'
	);
	return $wp_admin_nav;
}
