Parent slug isn't correct

[jccbbb]

Evening 🤗

What I am trying to do: To get the parent of a child in the menus post ID.

I am creating a top level parent of the menu that only has custom links (with anchor tags) as child(s) like below.

The about us page has the post ID 214 (seen in the URL):

However when I do a <?php dump( $child); ?> from the code do I get a completely different value (215):

{#2770 ▼ +"active": false +"activeAncestor": false +"activeParent": false +"classes": false +"dbId": 291 +"description": false +"id": 291 +"label": "Custom link" +"objectId": "291" +"parent": "215" +"slug": "{hidden by me}" +"target": false +"title": false +"url": "#test" +"xfn": false +"children": [] }

Shouldn't not the parent: equal 214? Because I would need to get out this value from the child itself to be able to get it's parent permalink 😊 Is it something I am doing wrong or have misunderstood with the logic? I have used the objectId since its correct with the post ID for other stuff but when I am on a child and need to pick out the value from there the only reference is the parent but that value isn't correct.

PS: This is the dump for the parent itself (About us) before it continues down to the child. {#2771 ▼ +"active": false +"activeAncestor": false +"activeParent": false +"classes": false +"dbId": 215 +"description": false +"id": 215 +"label": "About us" +"objectId": "214" +"parent": false +"slug": "215" +"target": false +"title": false +"url": "http://localhost:8181/about-us/" +"xfn": false +"children": array:1 [▼ 291 => {#2770 ▶} ] }

I also don't know if it is a similar error to what is happening for LucasDemea #58

Thanks for the detailed report.

I assume there's something different happening with the nav attributes. I'm extremely swamped right now but I'll try to look into it when I can if somebody else doesn't beat me to it.

Thank you for getting back so quickly Brandon 😊 I would love to help you out but my current code/PHP knowledge isn't at that level that I know really where to start and debug it unfortunately.

Anyhow, if you ever have time in the future, would it be highly appreciated if you had time to take a look on it 😊

Hello @Log1x ,

Have you been able to check on this? 😋 I'm currently blocked in a project where I really need to get the correct parent ID slug 😊

Not yet. I'll try to get a reproducible environment going this weekend. Sorry about the delay.

Hey @Log1x ,

Have you been able to find time to look on this? 🤗

Hey @Log1x,

I'm a little bit locked with a delivery to my client since I can't get the correct ID of a parent of a child. Are you able to look into this? I can pay if needed 😊

When Navi gives you a parent by default, it typically represents the ID of the parent menu item its self.

I added parentObjectId in v2.0.4 that should let you get the ID of whatever you have the parent menu item assigned to (post, term, etc.)

Thank you @Log1x! It works perfectly now 😊
