Style wp_page_menu() items

Question

I'm new to developing a custom template in Wordpress but I fail to see how I can style a menu item seperately.

With posts I can loop through them and place them in custom html elements. With wp_page_menu() I can only output the whole list. How can I loop through each item and place them in my custom template?

Html Template:

<ul class="nav navbar-nav navbar-right is-hidden">
  <li>
   <a class="page-link" href=""> ... </a>
  </li>
  ...
  ...
</ul>

Answer 1

Please find below the function for showing navigation menu. Here, $menu is equivalent to Menu name, ID, or slug

<?php 
function showMyMenu($menu)
{
    $navData = wp_get_nav_menu_items($menu); 
?>
<ul class="nav navbar-nav navbar-right is-hidden">
    <?php
    foreach($navData as $k => $v)
    {   
        echo '<li><a class="page-link" href="' . $v->url . '"> ' . $v->title . ' </a></li>';
    }
    ?>
</ul>
<?php } ?>

Following the code of the wp_page_menu directs me to the function get_pages. This is probably what you are looking for.

Looking at the function calls in wp_page_menu and wp_list_pages, you'll get an idea about what arguments you should pass to the get_pages function.
