Automatically add logout login link to your Wordpress navigation menu
There is a really simple piece of PHP code that you have to drop in the functions.php file in your currently activated theme. And with this only, it will add a new list item in the menu that will show Logout URL if user is logged in, else a Login URL is shown.
[php]
add_filter( ‘wp_nav_menu_items’, ‘add_loginout_link’, 10, 2 );
function add_loginout_link( $items, $args ) {
$menu_location = ‘_THEME_LOCATION’;
if (is_user_logged_in() && $args->theme_location == $menu_location ) {
$items .= ‘<li><a href=”‘. wp_logout_url() .'”>Log Out</a></li>’;
}
elseif (!is_user_logged_in() && $args->theme_location == $menu_location) {
$items .= ‘<li><a href=”‘. site_url(‘wp-login.php’) .'”>LogIn</a></li>’;
}
return $items;
}
[/php]
Please replace _THEME_LOCATION with the location of your menu.
Thanks
