Show shortcode output in menu

Hallo @mabufoysal,

you can do this via PHP. But if you want to do that, you can try to use this plugin:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/megamenu/

PHP Example without Plugin:

if ( ! has_filter( 'wp_nav_menu', 'do_shortcode' ) ) {
    add_filter( 'wp_nav_menu', 'shortcode_unautop' );
    add_filter( 'wp_nav_menu', 'do_shortcode', 11 );
}

Hallo @mabufoysal,

yes use this Filter wp_nav_menu or you can write a WP Menu Walker that allows you to use Shortcodes inside the Menu. Alternative you can use the Plugin.

More Details you can find here:
https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/classes/walker/
https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/do_shortcode/

Just use :

if ( ! has_filter( 'wp_nav_menu', 'do_shortcode' ) ) {
 add_filter( 'wp_nav_menu', 'shortcode_unautop' );
 add_filter( 'wp_nav_menu', 'do_shortcode', 11 );
}

in addition to your shortcode coding. With the above 4 lines you activate the use of shortcode in the menu. Add them there where you add your shortcode-code.
