Try this:Instead ofif ( has_nav_menu( $location ) ) { wp_nav_menu(array( 'theme_location' => 'menu-1'));}This:if ( has_nav_menu( 'menu-1' ) ) { wp_nav_menu(array( 'theme_location' => 'menu-1'));}Then, provided you've actually made a menu for the location in the admin panel, and assigned it to this location, it should work as far as I can see.

In my case it was so weird, I had to click on the 'add menu' button in the backend. Even though the menu was already defined including menu items. Afterwards I could select 'Primary'. Now the theme filters like 'wp_nav_menu' suddenly work as expected.–Floris Aug 24, 2017 at 12:23 Add a comment | Not the answer you're looking for?
