   Hi,

   I am trying to use this tips (http://www.billerickson.net/customizing-wordpress-menus/#logged-in) to hide a menu from not logged users but it seems not to work, do you have a css class that is made for this purpose ?
   Otherwise, do you have an idea why the provided code does work when I add it to my style.css

   thx

   Hello nec,

   We already have a menu walker which you can find in /wp-content/themes/[your_theme]/lib/classes/menu-walker.php. You probably need to add the classes there instead of adding your own in the functions.php file.

   The method in the first post should avoid me to modify any php file,
   I was talking about css class not php class :)

   I have activated the CSS Classes for my menus
   I have added the class "logged-in-nav" to the menu I want it to be displayed only for logged users
   I have added this ▼ to /wp-content/themes/dejavu/style.css

   #nav li.logged-in-nav {
   display: none;
   }

   body.logged-in #nav li.logged-in-nav {
   display: list-item;
   }

   but it doesn't work.

   That's going to have to be considered custom work. There are lots of membership plugins out there that you can try out though.

   Ok after a long search here is what I have done, it is almost working but I got a little problem remaining

   - I have activated the CSS Classes for my menus
   - I have added the class "logged-in-nav" to the menu I want it to be displayed only for logged users
   - I have created and activated a child theme for dejavu (dejavu-child)
   - I have added this ▼ to a child theme /wp-content/themes/dejavu-child/style.css
   

   /*
   Theme Name: Dejavu-Child
   Theme URI: http://mysitemyway.com/
   Description: Child Theme for DejaVu From A Mysitemyway Premium Wordpress Theme
   Author: Mysitemyway
   Author URI: http://mysitemyway.com/
   Template: dejavu
   Version: 1.3
   */
   
   @import url("../dejavu/style.css");
   
   li.logged-in-nav
   {
   	display: none;
   }
   
   body.logged-in li.logged-in-nav
   {
   	display: list-item;
   }

   - I have added this ▼ to /wp-content/themes/dejavu-child/function.php

   <?php
   // Add specific CSS class by filter
   add_filter('body_class','nec_logged_in_filter');
    
   function nec_logged_in_filter($classes)
   {
   	if( is_user_logged_in() )
   	{
   		$classes[] = 'logged-in';
   	}
    
   	// return the $classes array
   	return $classes;
   }
   ?>

   when I add the CSS class 'logged-in' manually to the body class attribute I can activate or deactivate menus with the "logged-in-nav" class but the problem here is that the nec_logged_in_filter function doesn't seems to be called by the body_class filter, or if it is, it doesn't add 'logged-in' to classes array, or if it is then it is cleared later. :/

   Ok I finally solved my last problem, in fact body call mysite_body_class() in content.php
   so I have copied the mysite_body_class function to my child theme and add it the code in nec_logged_in_filter.
