Add Menu management to the Customizer

Description

Merge the Menu Customizer plugin, per the proposal and tentative approval in the 6/3 dev chat.

Until merge, issues are being tracked on GitHub. Everything on the 1.0 milestone should be fixed before merge. Everything on the "Core Merge" milestone should be fixed in the core merge patch. Unfortunately we've realized that the remaining larger issues require core patches, which @westonrtuer and @adamsilverstein are working on.

In the meantime, here's a tentative merge plan for the code:

  • class-wp-customize-menus.php -> wp-includes/class-wp-customize-menus.php
  • customize-menus-preview.js -> Not sure, @westonruter?
  • customize-menus-preview.css -> Not sure, @westonruter? Might want to name it as just customize-preview.css to more logically add stuff there in the future, since there's so little here.
  • menu-customize-controls.php -> split into wp-includes/class-wp-customize-control|section|panel.php, adding the custom menu objects after all of the existing main objects and subclasses.
  • menu-customizer.css -> wp-admin/css/customize-menus.css
  • menu-customizer.js -> wp-admin/js/customize-menus.js
  • menu-customizer.php -> add menus bootstrap to wp-includes/class-wp-customize-manager.php::__construct()

The actual file-moving and patching should wait until the last minute and be merged with the required core patches for settings refactoring, drag & drop, Twenty Fifteen compatibility, and link updating. We'll do a hard freeze on the GitHub repo once we're ready to patch-ify the plugin, likely mid-week this week.

Also cc @valendesigns, @voldemortensen, @designsimply, @folletto, @ocean90 since many of you may not follow this component.

Point admin bar link to menus in the Customizer, add a manage in Customizer link to nav-menus.php.

#1 @celloexpressions

The easiest of the four non-plugin-merging core patches required is 32576.link-updates.diff, which handles the admin bar and "Manage in Customize" link on nav-menus.php. Note that all of the "Appearance" links in the admin bar now deep-link to the Customizer. I suggest condensing those to a single top-level "Customize" link in a future release (probably 4.4), and putting something more useful in this valuable place.

Additional needed patches will be:

  • Twenty Fifteen compatibility fix
  • Drag & Drop submenus core patch
  • Settings refactoring core patch (adds a filter I believe)
  • Unit tests, if not included in the main plugin-merging part
  • Plugin-merging patch, which does what I described above in terms of merging the files in

Eventually these will all be combined into one massive patch for committing, but I'd like to keep them as distinct as we can until we're ready to prepare that.

See also https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/28138#comment:3 for something we should fix before/on merge. Could use a new patch that takes exactly what Menu Customizer does, as I believe it changed somewhat.

#4 @westonruter
8 years ago

In 32744:

Customizer: Allow sections and panels to be exported to JS.

Also fix param docs for customize_dynamic_setting_class filter, and use require_once for class-wp-customize-manager.php in bootstrap function _wp_customize_include().

See #30737, #32576.

  • Component changed from Menus to Customize

#17 follow-up: @greenshady
8 years ago

With one of my themes that has a hidden menu by default, the menu is opened and messes up the entire design with the change (screenshot attached). This seems to happen because of the addition of the following code (added via JS?):

<div id="partial-refresh-menu-container-1" class="partial-refresh-menu-container" data-instance-number="1">

I've already figured out how to correct this on my end, but I imagine there'll be other themes with similar issues. Injecting an additional <div> has potential to cause some unintended consequences with theme designs.

#18 @valendesigns
8 years ago

That code is added by WP_Customize_Menus::filter_wp_nav_menu() under certain conditions when a menu can be partially refreshed. If you want to hack it so it works without partial refresh you could set echo to false when you use wp_nav_menu and then echo the menu manually.

Instead of wrapping the menu with a div when wp_nav_menu is called, we could maybe add those attributes directly onto the root element that would be output.

#21 @valendesigns

That would probably be better.

I tested by live-editing the HTML on my test install. That idea seems to fix the issue for me.
