How to hide menu item under "My account" profile menu for logged out users

[ImG]

I have added custom link “FAQ” to “My account” menu item in the social header. When the user is logged out “My account” menu item disappears but that custom link “FAQ” is appearing in the drop-down. I want to hide that custom link when the user is logged out. Since i already installed many plugins i don’t want to use any plugin for this problem. Any solution!

Hi @laura, It works great! but i have two questions

1. Whenever header.php is updated i need to copy the updated header.php to paste in kleo child theme and also i need to include the code given by you for each update of header.php. So can you please provide me the code which does the same function from functions.php of child theme to avoid repeated work because of update?

2. If i want to include one more menu item under “My Account” means, whether i need to include the menu item id in new set of code or any possibility to include the id in already existing set of codes?

Thank you for your continual support.

Hello, in the child theme you should have a header.php empty if not copy the main file and paste it there. Right not there is no function for that.
Yes, if you want to hide any other menu item just add it to the code like:

COPY CODE

li#menu-item-3112 {
    display: none !important;
}

Inside the <style> </style> where the other one is
Just change the menu item id

Hi @laura, I’m not able to understand your answer for the first question, i already copied parent theme header.php to child theme, then at the end in that copied file i have added the code given by you. Now my problem is whenever header.php of parent theme is updated i need copy that header.php to child theme for all future updates and i have to include the code given by you in copied header.php for each update, Any solution for avoiding future work during update?

[Laura]

Hello, i dont think you would need to update the header.php but if its needed then you will have to, but that is how the child theme works.
Again, i dont think you will need to do that

If I understand your problem correctly, I had a similar problem and noticed that if there was no sub menu under “My Account” menu it, it would not appear if the user was logged out. Once they logged in, the “My Account” menu item would appear in the menu bar. If you added a sub-menu item under “My Account”, then “My Account” and the sub-menu item would appear even if the user was not logged in.

My solution was to use a plugin called “Nav Menu Roles” which made it very easy to control visibility of the sub-menu items based on the condition if the user was logged in or not.
