Is it possible to use php variable in menu URL, that I defined in function.php?
This is actually not working:
For example, in variable $path I store username of every user so they can visit their own profile.

Short answer: No, it's not possible. That url is just for text. It doesn't evaluate PHP code there.Cave Johnson– Cave Johnson2017-09-11 19:09:55 +00:00Commented Sep 11, 2017 at 19:09

What is the value of $path? Why don't you just put the value there?Cave Johnson– Cave Johnson2017-09-11 19:13:32 +00:00Commented Sep 11, 2017 at 19:13

You can use a hook and add the PHP programmatically.
add_filter( 'wp_get_nav_menu_items','nav_items', 11, 3 );
function nav_items( $items, $menu, $args ) {
if( is_admin() )
return $items;
foreach( $items as $item ) {
if( 'profil' == $item->post_title ) {
$current_user = wp_get_current_user();
$username = $current_user->user_login;
$item->url .= '/' . $username;
}
}
return $items;
}
I found this code from another answer on this community.

yea i got username already stored i just need to attach it to profile link
In Wordpress You Can Do Direct Like this for get the current user details:
<?php
$current_user = wp_get_current_user();
echo 'Username: ' . $current_user->user_login . '<br />';
echo 'User email: ' . $current_user->user_email . '<br />';
echo 'User first name: ' . $current_user->user_firstname . '<br />';
echo 'User last name: ' . $current_user->user_lastname . '<br />';
echo 'User display name: ' . $current_user->display_name . '<br />';
echo 'User ID: ' . $current_user->ID . '<br />';
?>
