Inside we will find the PHP code to use to output the menu location:<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can paste this code anywhere into your theme template files. Usually it is placed within the header.php file. In our case we’re using the WordPress theme editor (you can use your own text editor if you prefer), and have pasted the code just after the opening <body> tag:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Save the file and the menu will now be output on your site.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" As Max Mega Menu overrides the standard WordPress function to output a menu location, no special configuration or theme setup is required.
