Extending WordPress Navigation block with functionality to display classic menus.
<h4>What problem does it solve?</h4>
❓ Do you experience problems making your website navigation multilingual when using block theme (FSE – full site editing)? 
❓ Are you using a plugin that modifies classic menu but not Navigation block and you are using block theme?
Classic Menu in Navigation Block plugin lets you display classic menus in Navigation block so you can gain from using classic menu modification plugins and yet display the menu with accessibility, customization and responsive features of Navigation block.
This method is particularly useful when building a multilingual website and your multilingual plugin does not handle Navigation block very well. You can simply “revert” back to using classic menu, which multilingual plugins supports out of the box.
You can do changes to your classic menus and Navigation block will always display up to date version of the menu.
To speed things up the plugin also applies caching for your classic menus converted to blocks. This cache is updated every time you update your classic menu. If you are using a very dynamic classic menu modification plugin, you can even disable the cache.

Classic Menu in Navigation Block


Great job, maybe needed some polishing, but it provides exactly that is needed. Gives the Classic Menu Admin and ability to style.



It would be great to see the classic menu working on the edit mode when the menu is selected, otherwise it is a little confusing, is it selected or not.


Exactly what needed


Great to add that classic control when using an FSE theme.
