Button Menu 1.3.0
Description
Button Menu is a WordPress plugin that lets you render your existing navigation menus as button-styled links anywhere on your site. Instead of being limited to the header or a single menu location, you can place menu buttons on specific pages, layouts, and sections using a simple shortcode. It’s designed to solve common UX and layout challenges when a traditional menu needs to be presented in a clearer, more visual way.
The plugin supports unlimited sub-menu levels, so complex navigation structures can be represented without losing organization. With optional icons, animations, and detailed control over each icon’s color, you can align navigation styling with your theme and templates for a consistent, modern interface.
