menu set to show to logged in users only still showing

[bamhost]

Hello,
I'm hoping you can help.

bootscore 5.3.3
bootscore child 5.3.3
wordpress 6.3.1

I have created a menu that is for logged in users only, however, when I log out, the menu still shows. It doesn't matter if I add the menu to a widget, or just assign it to the footer-menu location, it still shows after logging out. Cleared cached many times, still showing.

I use the bootscore child theme, but changed it to bootscore main to test, and the menu still shows. I then changed to the twenty twenty-three theme, and it works correctly, the menu does not show.

I made the menu available to logged in users:
Appearance > Menus > Manage Locations > Footer menu > Selected the menu and then clicked + Conditions
General tab checked User Logged In, User Roles tab checked Administrator and Editor and SAVE

Can you help me to get this to work correctly?

Hello,

Appearance > Menus > Manage Locations > Footer menu > Selected the menu and then clicked + Conditions

this seems to be a 3rd party plugin. WordPress itself has no condition settings. So, I can't tell you what is wrong there.

But you can do this with simple code as well. 2 ways:

PHP

1. Copy footer.php to your child and locate nav-walker

bootscore/footer.php

Lines 59 to 70 in abdb20a

	<!-- Bootstrap 5 Nav Walker Footer Menu -->
	<?php
	wp_nav_menu(array(
	'theme_location' => 'footer-menu',
	'container' => false,
	'menu_class' => '',
	'fallback_cb' => '__return_false',
	'items_wrap' => '<ul id="footer-menu" class="nav %2$s">%3$s</ul>',
	'depth' => 1,
	'walker' => new bootstrap_5_wp_nav_menu_walker()
	));
	?>

2. Wrap nav-walker in if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {...}

<!-- Bootstrap 5 Nav Walker Footer Menu --> 
<?php
  if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {
    wp_nav_menu(array(
      'theme_location' => 'footer-menu',
      'container'      => false,
      'menu_class'     => '',
      'fallback_cb'    => '__return_false',
      'items_wrap'     => '<ul id="footer-menu" class="nav %2$s">%3$s</ul>',
      'depth'          => 1,
      'walker'         => new bootstrap_5_wp_nav_menu_walker()
    )); 
  }
?>

CSS

If you do not want to go the PHP way, simply use the logged-in body class:

#footer-menu {
  display: none;
}

.logged-in #footer-menu {
  display: flex;
}

Both methods leads into the same result, footer-menu is hidden for not logged in visitors. Of course, PHP version is cleaner.

Solved?
