Thanks Mike, was not apparently the nav-menus source file i looked at
before.
I managed to create menus, register locations, ect. only thing that I
couldn't managed to get working was assigning the menu locations, if empty,
the proper menu I created.
Both my menu names and locations use the same names, so I tried all kinds of
stuff to get them to mesh, but I kept getting a warning/error because of
this, return (!empty( $locations[ $location ] )); Something about
illegal offset on empty or isset. Returning like this is new and strange to
me haha.
// my menus & locations = Top', 'Header', 'Footer'
if ( has_nav_menu( $location )) {
$locations = get_nav_menu_locations();
return (!empty( $locations[ $location ] ));
}
Thanks again for your help.
