    Is there a way to add the parent page name to the top of the auto-generated sidebar menu? See the link in the Private Content area. In this example, we would like “Trusts & Estates” to appear above “Core Documents, Family Matters, Real Estate, etc.”

    Thanks!

    Hey John,

    Please add following code to functions.php file of your child theme

    function avia_sidebar_menu($echo = true)
    {
        $sidebar_menu = "";

        $subNav = avia_get_option('page_nesting_nav');
  
        
        $the_id = @get_the_ID();
        $args 	= array();
		global $post;

        if($subNav && $subNav != 'disabled' && !empty($the_id) && is_page())
        {
            $subNav = false;
            $parent = $post->ID;
            $sidebar_menu = "";

            if (!empty($post->post_parent))
            {
                if(isset($post->ancestors)) $ancestors  = $post->ancestors;
                if(!isset($ancestors)) $ancestors  = get_post_ancestors($post->ID);
                $root		= count($ancestors)-1;
                $parent 	= $ancestors[$root];
            }

            $args = array('title_li'=>'', 'child_of'=>$parent, 'echo'=>0, 'sort_column'=>'menu_order, post_title');

            //enables user to change query args
            $args = apply_filters('avia_sidebar_menu_args', $args, $post);

            //hide or show child pages in menu - if the class is set to 'widget_nav_hide_child' the child pages will be hidden
            $display_child_pages = apply_filters('avia_sidebar_menu_display_child', 'widget_nav_hide_child', $args, $post);

            $children = wp_list_pages($args);

            if ($children)
            {
                $default_sidebar = false;
                $sidebar_menu .= "<nav class='widget widget_nav_menu $display_child_pages'>
<ul class='nested_nav'>";
                $sidebar_menu .= get_the_title( $post->post_parent );
                $sidebar_menu .= $children;
                $sidebar_menu .= "
</nav>";
            }
        }

        $sidebar_menu = apply_filters('avf_sidebar_menu_filter', $sidebar_menu, $args, $post);

        if($echo == true) { echo $sidebar_menu; } else { return $sidebar_menu; }
    }

    Best regards,

    The code above works to display the parent page title in the sidebar, but how do you make it link to the actual page, and how do you target it for styling the css differently from the sub-pages?

    Hi!

    Please use the code as following 

    function avia_sidebar_menu($echo = true)
    {
        $sidebar_menu = "";

        $subNav = avia_get_option('page_nesting_nav');
  
        
        $the_id = @get_the_ID();
        $args 	= array();
		global $post;

        if($subNav && $subNav != 'disabled' && !empty($the_id) && is_page())
        {
            $subNav = false;
            $parent = $post->ID;
            $sidebar_menu = "";

            if (!empty($post->post_parent))
            {
                if(isset($post->ancestors)) $ancestors  = $post->ancestors;
                if(!isset($ancestors)) $ancestors  = get_post_ancestors($post->ID);
                $root		= count($ancestors)-1;
                $parent 	= $ancestors[$root];
            }

            $args = array('title_li'=>'', 'child_of'=>$parent, 'echo'=>0, 'sort_column'=>'menu_order, post_title');

            //enables user to change query args
            $args = apply_filters('avia_sidebar_menu_args', $args, $post);

            //hide or show child pages in menu - if the class is set to 'widget_nav_hide_child' the child pages will be hidden
            $display_child_pages = apply_filters('avia_sidebar_menu_display_child', 'widget_nav_hide_child', $args, $post);

            $children = wp_list_pages($args);
            $permalink = get_permalink($post->post_parent); 

            if ($children)
            {
                $default_sidebar = false;
                $sidebar_menu .= "<nav class='widget widget_nav_menu $display_child_pages'>
<ul class='nested_nav'>";
                $sidebar_menu .= "<a class='avia-parent-title' href='".$permalink."''>".get_the_title( $post->post_parent )."</a>";
                $sidebar_menu .= $children;
                $sidebar_menu .= "
</nav>";
            }
        }

        $sidebar_menu = apply_filters('avf_sidebar_menu_filter', $sidebar_menu, $args, $post);

        if($echo == true) { echo $sidebar_menu; } else { return $sidebar_menu; }
    }

    Then add following code to Quick CSS in Enfold theme options under General Styling tab
    a.avia-parent-title { color: orange; }

    Yigit
