<p>This plugin provides an API which allows the developer of a site to add custom fields on the default menu editor.</p>
<h4>Example Initialisation</h4>
<pre><code><?php
add_action('init', 'menu_excerpt__add_menu_field');
function menu_excerpt__add_menu_field() {
    if (!is_callable('bh_add_custom_menu_fields'))
        return;

    bh_add_custom_menu_fields(array(
        'excerpt' => array(
            'description' => 'Excerpt',
            'type' => 'textarea',
            )));
}
?>
</code></pre>
<h4>Accessing the fields</h4>
<p>The easiest way to access the field(s) you’ve added is to use something along the lines of:</p>
<pre><code>$menu = 'menuName';
$posts = wp_get_nav_menu_items($menu);
foreach ($posts as $p) {
    $myitem = get_post_meta($p->ID, '_menu_item_youritem', true);
    // do with $myitem what you like - it should be a string,
    // so the simplest thing is to "echo" it
}
</code></pre>
<p>you can use menu locations to get the menu name if you prefer – replace the first line above with:</p>
<pre><code>$locations = get_nav_menu_locations();
$menu = $locations['locationName'];
</code></pre>
<p>menu locations are useful if you like to swap your menus about.</p>
<p>Unfortunately these examples don’t allow the use of wordpress’ inbuilt menu walkers. To use those you will need to create a custom walker_nav_menu class and access the custom fields with something along the lines of (very stripped down example will need fleshing out for full walker functionality – there are tutorials on the net for custom nav walkers):</p>
<pre><code>class mywalker extends Walker_Nav_Menu {
    function start_el(&$output, $item, $depth, $args) {
        echo $item->custom_field
    }
}
</code></pre>
<p>The important bit here is that the field is placed on the second variable which behaves like an object. the custom_field part is the name you gave your field with dashes replaced with underscores (to allow the name to be used in an accessor).</p>
<h4>NOTE</h4>
<p>This plugin does nothing by itself. It provides an API only.</p>

<p>Gravity Forms does not yet support slider fields. Until that time, this plugin may serve the purpose well.</p>
<p>The plugin adds a new slider field within the advanced field group. Customize your slider with the following set of options.</p>
<h4>Supported Options</h4>
<p><strong>Native to Gravity Forms</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>field label</li>
<li>description</li>
<li>number format</li>
<li>range</li>
<li>handle connects</li>
<li>field label visibility</li>
<li>description placement</li>
<li>custom css class</li>
<li>field size</li>
<li>admin field label</li>
<li>default value</li>
<li>visibility</li>
<li>allow field to be populated dynamically</li>
<li>enable conditional logic</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Custom</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>value relations (descriptive terms that relate to min & max number values of slider)</li>
<li>step (precision of values that can selected along the slider)</li>
<li>show value (select whether to hide, show on hover & drag, or always shows the currently selected value)</li>
<li>connect (visually connect the handle to the upper or lower edge of the slider)</li>
</ul>
<p>If value relations have been defined, they will be displayed along with the field label in form entry details and when using merge tags.</p>

Gravity Slider Fields

This looks and appears nicely on Gravity Forms. However, I have calculated fields and it's only taking the default value I've set and not the updated value. My confirmation message repeats the slider value... and it's not the actual slider value it's the default.
