wordpress navigation walker (nav walker for wordpress)

place it in a directory called "inc" then write an require once in the functions.php to include it to the wordpress system like the below one. this line goes into functions.php (copy-paste it without the qoutations) > "require_once('inc/mdb_bootstrap_navwalker.php');" then use the below code in the header.php and header-shop.php if you use woocommerce to register the navigation bar > "<?php if ( has_nav_menu( 'navbar' ) ) { wp_nav_menu( array( 'menu' => 'navbar', 'theme_location' => 'navbar', 'depth' => 10, 'menu_class' => 'navbar-nav mr-auto', 'fallback_cb' => 'wp_bootstrap_navwalker::fallback', 'container' => false, 'walker' => new MDBBootstrapNavMenuWalker()) ); } else echo "Please assign Navbar Menu in Wordpress Admin -> Appearance -> Menus -> Manage Locations"; ?>" after all these put these css in the woocommerce.css/ style.css to show the multi-level navigation bar > ".dropdown-submenu { position: relative; }

.dropdown-submenu>.dropdown-menu { top: 0; right: 100%; margin-top: -6px; margin-right: -1px; -webkit-border-radius: 0 6px 6px 6px; -moz-border-radius: 0 6px 6px; border-radius: 0 6px 6px 6px; }

.dropdown-submenu:hover>.dropdown-menu { display: block; }

.dropdown-submenu>a:after { display: block; content: " "; float: left; width: 0; height: 0; border-color: transparent; border-style: solid; border-width: 5px 5px 5px 0; border-left-color: #ccc; margin-top: 5px; margin-right: -10px; }

.dropdown-submenu:hover>a:after { border-right-color: #fff; }

.dropdown-submenu.pull-left { float: none; }

.dropdown-submenu.pull-left>.dropdown-menu { right: -100%; margin-right: 10px; -webkit-border-radius: 6px 6px 6px 0; -moz-border-radius: 6px 6px 6px 0; border-radius: 6px 6px 6px 0; }"
