Many (many) moons ago I made a video about “conditional menus” in WordPress — you know, “page specific” menus — different menus for different pages. Aww, look at fresh faced Jakson 8 and a half years ago! https://youtu.be/37uuUW-6L7s
That video was for classic themes — and it still gets thousands of views per year! Oh, and by the way, the plugin featured still works just fine for classic theme conditional menus — a new demo of that is included in this video.
But with the new era of Block Theming, does the plugin used all those years ago work for Full Site Editing? Absolutely not! So how do we do it for Block Themes? It’s easy, and in this WordPress block theming tutorial I’ll show you how.
