Adding drop-down menu to an Account (on header)

[idyoon]

Hi,

I’m one of happy users who’s building my website with atelier theme.

I’m wondering if I can add a menu(page?) in the account menu on header. I’d like to link this drop-down menu which is called ‘track my order’ to a tracking page.

Please let me know how can I make it.
(please check the attachment)

Thanks

Hi,

Unfortunately that is not as easy to build as other menu items. You will need to active your atelier child theme, within it’s functions.php file you will need to add this to override the default sf_aux_links() function : http://pastie.org/private/tw2aav6tfcpqaismp6spg.

Within that function, you will see this:

$aux_links_output .= '<li><a href="' . $my_account_link . '" class="admin-link">' . __( "My Account", "swiftframework" ) . '</a></li>' . "\n";

Directly beneath that, you can add your links. Ex:

$aux_links_output .= '<li><a href="mydomain.com/custom-url" class="admin-link">' . __( "MY CUSTOM LINK TEXT", "swiftframework" ) . '</a></li>' . "\n";

Thanks.

Hi David,

Thanks for your reply.

I’ve followed your direction. (had put that script in the child theme’s functions.php file, added my link and changed text too.)

Could you please check the script again?

Many thanks

You have not added the code I provided. Please re-read over the above: http://www.swiftideas.com/forums/topic/adding-drop-down-menu-to-an-account-on-header/#post-232229.

Hey,

No problem, I have updated your child theme and the link is now being output.

Please take a look and let me know how that looks for you.

Thanks.

How do I add the track your order page to the user menu?

I already set up a page with [woocommerce_order_tracking] shortcode, just the need the snippet to add to my childtheme function.php i guess?

Greetings,

I was wondering – can I have the Account Menu translated via the child-theme’s function.php

something like:

$aux_links_output .= '<li><a href="' . $my_account_link . '">' . __( "My Account", "swiftframework" ) . '</a></li>' . "\n";
 if ( if get locale() ) == 'bg_BG' ) { 
$aux_links_output .= '<li><a href="/bg/moiya-account">' . __( "MY CUSTOM LINK TEXT", "swiftframework" ) . '</a></li>' . "\n";

Or is there another way to have it translate?

I am using Polylang & Loco Translate, but I can’t find these string to translate. I mean I did in Loco translate bu putting as a translating not just the word but with <a href="url to menu">my translated menu name</a>, but this thing broke a few things in the theme.

I would really appreciate it if you can help me with this.

Thanks!
