<h4>No undesirable visual effects</h4>
<p>The visual appearance of menus and category lists in the frontend remains unchanged in most cases. If you should see an undesirable visual effect to the menus and category lists in your theme, then you can activate the needed CSS classes on the plugin’s options page.</p>
<h4>Deactivate it and keep your settings</h4>
<p>If you deactivate the plugin, your settings remains. If you activate the plugin again, your last settings will be used. You do not need to go over all settings again.</p>
<h4>Residue-free deletion</h4>
<p>If you delete the plugin via the WordPress ‘Plugin’ menu, your settings will be deleted, too. No useless option remains in the WordPress database.</p>
<h4>Default setting: Marks the current menu item only</h4>
<p>The default setting is to output only the CSS classes for the navigation menu items of the current post and the current category.</p>
<h4>Stops displaying CSS classes of parents and ancestors of menu items and category list items</h4>
<p>If activated by yourself, then items which are parents of the current item will not be classified as ancestors additionally. You can set that separately for both menus and category lists.</p>
<h4>Stops displaying CSS classes of outdated page menus</h4>
<p>This plugin filters out the old CSS classes of page menus in navigation menus. Using the WordPress menu configurator the page menu classes are not necessary anymore.</p>
<h4>Stops displaying #menu-{id}</h4>
<p>This plugin deletes the ID attribute of each menu item. In most cases the ID of every menu item is not needed.</p>
<h4>Stops displaying CSS classes of category lists</h4>
<p>This plugin filters out the CSS classes of each item in category lists.</p>
<h4>Uses WordPress standard functions</h4>
<p>This plugin hooks into the WordPress core functions <code>wp_nav_menu()</code>, <code>wp_page_menu()</code> and <code>wp_list_categories()</code>. It changes the results of those functions to the settings you have done.</p>
<h4>Switch on and off every CSS menu item class</h4>
<p>You can:</p>
<ul>
<li>select and deselect in detail every CSS menu item class the WordPress core functions <code>wp_nav_menu()</code>, <code>wp_page_menu()</code> and <code>wp_list_categories()</code> generate</li>
<li>control whether the id attribute of each navigation menu item is printed out or not</li>
<li>control whether parent items will be additionally classified as ancestors item or not. You can activate to print out both classes on parent items or just parents classes</li>
<li>control whether navigation menus will be additionally classified with the older page menu classes for compatibility or not.</li>
</ul>

<h3>Fully automatic sidebar menus.</h3>
<p>Uses the parent/child relationship of your pages or categories to generate menus based on the current section of your site. Assign a page or category to a parent and Advanced Sidebar Menu will do the rest for you.</p>
<p>Keeps the menu clean and usable. Only related items display, so you don’t have to worry about keeping a custom menu up to date or displaying links to items that don’t belong.</p>
<p>Blocks are available to display menus where you need them. Look for the “Advanced Sidebar – Pages” block, or the “Advanced Sidebar – Categories” block. Widgets are also available for page builders or sites using classic widgets.</p>
<p><strong>Developed and Supported by <a href="https://onpointplugins.com/advanced-sidebar-menu/" rel="nofollow ugc">OnPoint Plugins</a>.</strong></p>
<h3>Documentation</h3>
<p>The official documentation for the plugin <a href="https://onpointplugins.com/advanced-sidebar-menu/" rel="nofollow ugc">may be found here</a>.</p>

<h3>How It Works</h3>
<p>When your users view a page or category, the Advanced Sidebar Menu plugin will calculate the related content based on what you have selected using the standard WordPress parent selectors.</p>

<ul>
<li>The current page.</li>

<li>Child pages.</li>
