hallowebsite Navigation Shortcodes

Overview

hallowebsite Navigation Shortcodes is a set of flexible shortcodes that output lists and navigations from your content: child pages of the current page, posts of a category, entries of any custom post type, taxonomy terms, or a WordPress menu. The output is a clean, unstyled list with an optional <nav> wrapper and highlighting of the current item. You can style it freely, e.g. with your Kadence palette. It's ideal for sidebars, sub-navigations, related-content blocks and sitemaps.

Features

• [pages_nav]: subpages of the current (or any) page, with depth control.
• [post_list]: posts, pages or any CPT, filtered by taxonomy terms or IDs.
• [category_posts]: posts of a category (shortcut).
• [term_list]: categories, tags or custom taxonomy terms as a tree.
• [wp_menu]: a WordPress menu by name or theme location, as a flat list.
• Highlights the current item, can exclude the current item, and offers an optional accessible <nav aria-label>.
• Aliases: [post-list], [cat_list], [cat-list].
