Merge Menus

v1.3.0 · by watchthedot

Quickly add the elements of 1 menu on to another

About this plugin

Ever had to combine 2 menus using the default WordPress Menu editor. Manually it can take a while to copy over all the details from 1 menu to another.

This does all the leg work for you by copying all the elements of the menu into the menu you are currently editing, keeping its sub-menus.

How to use

  1. Go to Appearance > Menus and open the menu you want to add to.
  2. Find the Merge Menus box on the left. If it is not there, open Screen Options at the top of the screen and tick Merge Menus.
  3. Choose the menu to copy from and press Merge Menu. Its items are added to the bottom of your menu, with their sub-menus.
  4. Press Save Menu. Nothing is kept until the menu is saved.

The menu you copy from is never changed. Merge Menus works with classic menus (Appearance > Menus), not the Navigation block.
