Can You Add Custom Code to WordPress?
In this tutorial, we are going to learn how to add custom code to WordPress. This is a powerful feature that can be used to extend and customize the WordPress platform.
Before we get started, it is important to understand that custom code can be risky. If you aren’t familiar with the code, or if you make a mistake, your website could be damaged.
Always use caution when working with custom code.
In this tutorial, we are going to add a custom menu to our website. This menu will allow us to easily access our blog posts and pages.
First, we will need to create a new file called menu.php in our WordPress root.
This file will contain our custom code.
Next, we will need to add a few lines of code to our menu.php file.
These lines will show the location of our custom menu.
The first line will show the location of our blog posts. This line will use the wp_get_archives function.
The second line will show the location of our pages. This line will use the wp_get_pages function.
Finally, we will add a line that will show the location of our custom menu. This line will use the get_header function.

Next, we will need to click on the Menu Item Settings button.
We will need to enter the ID of our new menu item. This ID will be used to identify our menu item in the WordPress dashboard.
