Hi guys,

I’m trying to add login / log out links to my top menu in my Enfold theme and WooCommerce powered website. I’m using the following code in my functions.php file as per the recommendations by Woothemes:
```
add_filter( 'wp_nav_menu_items', 'add_loginout_link', 10, 2 );
function add_loginout_link( $items, $args ) {
    if (is_user_logged_in() && $args->theme_location == 'top-menu') {
        $items .= '<li><a href="https://www.mywebsite.com/account/customer-logout/">Log Out</a></li>';
    }
    elseif (!is_user_logged_in() && $args->theme_location == 'top-menu') {
        $items .= '<li><a href="https://www.mywebsite.com/account/customer-login/">Log In</a></li>';
    }
    return $items;
}
```
Original article here: https://support.woothemes.com/hc/en-us/articles/203106357-Add-Login-Logout-Links-To-The-Custom-Primary-Menu-Area

However nothing I try seems to work. How must I adjust the above code to make it work with the Enfold theme?

Note: the reason I need to do it via the functions file is because I need to use specific login and logout pages other than the WP defaults.

Thank you.

Hey!

I didn’t test your code out but just from looking at it you’ll need to change the “top-menu” part to point to our theme location names.

You can change it to this to target the primary menu.
```
if (is_user_logged_in() && $args->theme_location == 'avia') {
```
Or switch it to “avia2” or “avia3” to target the header / footer menu areas.

Best regards,
Elliott

Hi Elliott,

Thanks for getting back to me. This is exactly what I was missing! Works perfectly now. Thank you.

In case anyone else is trying to add sign in/sign out logic to their header that uses non WP default pages (like with a WooCommerce store) via the functions.php file, here’s the code:
```
// Add Log in / log out links to top menu

add_filter( 'wp_nav_menu_items', 'add_loginout_link', 10, 2 );
function add_loginout_link( $items, $args ) {
    if (is_user_logged_in() && $args->theme_location == 'avia2') {
        $items .= '<li><a href="your-domain/account/customer-logout/">Log Out</a></li>';
    }
    elseif (!is_user_logged_in() && $args->theme_location == 'avia2') {
        $items .= '<li><a href="your-domain/account/">Log In</a></li>';
    }
    return $items;
}
```
This will add the links to the top menu in your theme. Just replace the URL’s with your own URL’s to your log in and log out pages.
