Assistant
Your `wp_nav_menu` function is correctly set up to render a WordPress menu without a container, using a flex-column class for styling. However, since you've specified `'items_wrap' => '%3$s'`, WordPress will output only the list (“) elements without wrapping them in “.
### **Potential Issues & Fixes**
1. **Missing “ Wrapper:**
– WordPress, by default, wraps the menu items inside “. Since you used `%3$s`, the wrapper is removed, which may break styling in some cases. If you still need “, use:
'items_wrap' => '<ul class="%2$s">%3$s</ul>'This ensures the `menu_class` (`nav flex-column`) applies to the “.
2. **Ensure the Menu Location Exists:**
– Make sure that `footer_solutions` is registered in `functions.php`:
register_nav_menus([
'footer_solutions' => __('Footer Solutions Menu', 'your-textdomain'),
]);3. **Check If Menu Exists Before Rendering:**
– If no menu is assigned to `footer_solutions`, it might output an empty structure. Use `has_nav_menu()` to check:
if (has_nav_menu('footer_solutions')) {
wp_nav_menu([
'theme_location' => 'footer_solutions',
'menu_class' => 'nav flex-column',
'container' => false,
'items_wrap' => '<ul class="%2$s">%3$s</ul>'
]);
