Faison

<p>Add <a href="https://codex.wordpress.org/Navigation_Menus" rel="nofollow ugc">Navigation Menus</a> to <a href="https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/advanced-custom-fields/" rel="ugc">Advanced Custom Fields</a> (ACF) with the Nav Menu Field plugin! This plugin adds the Nav Menu Field type to ACF (version 5 & 4), allowing you to select from the menus you create in the WordPress Admin backend to use on your website’s frontend.</p>
<p>Using ACF, you can set the Nav Menu Field to return the selected menu’s:</p>
<ul>
<li>ID for lightweight coding,</li>
<li>Object for more involved programming, or</li>
<li>HTML (generated from <a href="https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_nav_menu" rel="nofollow ugc">wp_nav_menu</a>) for quickly displaying a menu.</li>
</ul>
<p>I created this plugin because I needed to display a secondary menu that changed depending on what page you’re on. Most of those pages were children of the same page, but then I had to throw a couple of Custom Post Types in there too. Because of the Custom Post Types, I couldn’t just grab the top most parent for the current page and use <a href="https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_list_pages" rel="nofollow ugc">wp_list_pages</a>. So I did some research and decided to extend the functionality of my favourite plugin, <a href="https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/advanced-custom-fields/" rel="ugc">Advanced Custom Fields</a>. Now when I create a new Page or Custom Post, I just select the menu from a drop down menu!</p>

Advanced Custom Fields: Nav Menu Field

Does what it says

This plugin might be old, but it still works perfectly and does exactly what I needed. No PHP errors, warnings, or notices, either. Running with ACF PRO 5.6.7 and WordPress 4.9.1.

Oldie but Goodie

Let's don't make any mistakes here - this addon is perfect and needs no changes, that's why there is nothing to update here.

Used it in many sites. Thank you!
