Hello!
I’m wondering where to find the topmenu? It’s not in the header.php…at least i don’t see it.
I found it in the css though and already managed to make the topbar smaller. I want to place language flags at the ed of the topmenu, so i need t know in which .php-file it is in.
Can anybody help?

Thanks a lot!

Hi,

The menus are created using WordPress hooks and functions and you can find that in /includes/theme-setup.php

Too add to that it you should use filters. Here’s and example of how to add a searchbar to it:

add_filter(‘wp_nav_menu_items’,’add_search_box_to_menu’, 10, 2);

function add_search_box_to_menu( $items, $args ) { 
    if( $args->theme_location == 'top' ) {
        $items = $items."<li class='menu-header-search'>
	    <i class='search-icon'></i>
	    <form action='".esc_url(home_url( '/' ))."' id='searchform' method='get'>
	        <input type='text' name='s' id='s' placeholder='".__('Search','nirvana')."...'>
	        <input type='submit' id='searchsubmit' value='&#xe816;' />
	    </form>
	</li>";
    }
return $items;
}

No matter how you do it though, always remember to use child themes. http://www.cryoutcreations.eu/wordpress-themes/wordpress-tutorials/wordpress-child-themes

Good luck!
