  • How to improve WordPress menu functionality?

    Since I can’t really find any useful WordPress menu plugins. Also not when searching further, I’m making a list of what I want from a WordPress menu. Drupal menus are not amazing, but generally they don’t suck, even less thanks to my friend’s Menu Editor module and the Menu attributes module. The first allows me to not go mad when adding or editing menu items and the second give me a lot of flexibility, e.g. adding rel="nofollow" and target="_blank" where I want.

    So here’s the list with WordPress menu wishes:

    • convenient adding of attributes such as rel="nofollow" and target="_blank"
    • convenient menu editor
    • no “premium” version, WordPress is GPL and this should be respected

    I may add a couple more over time and I may just start writing it myself.

    Links in comments are now dofollow (thanks to this plugin). This doesn’t mean that spam will be tolerated. It just means that if you’re leaving meaningful comments that contain links these links will get some link juice from this website.
