    Hello awesome people!!!

    I would like to add my logo (text) OR write it with larger fonts just before the menu links inside the Genesis navigation bar.

    As far as I understand I would need to create a widget exactly before the menu links inside the navigation bar.

    The theme I'm using is custom Genesis Sample.

    Could you give me some ideas on this?

    The website I want to add it is this => http://theVasilis.com

    And I want to add my name "VASILIS STERGIOU" written with larger fonts (same font type) exactly before the menu links.

    Thank you very much for your support 🙂

    Try this plugin. Nav Menu Images. It's a little old. But still works.

    Hey thanks for the suggestion

    I checked it out but there are a lot of bugs going on with it so I would prefer a cleaner solution.

    Thank you once again.

    Any other ideas?

    add this to functions.php

    /* Add Logo to Nav bar*/
    
    add_filter( 'genesis_nav_items', 'ja_logo_to_nav', 10, 2 );
    add_filter( 'wp_nav_menu_items', 'ja_logo_to_nav', 10, 2 );
    /**
     * Based on tutorial Follow Icons in Menu
     * @author Bill Erickson
     * @link http://www.billerickson.net/genesis-wordpress-nav-menu-content/
     *
     * @param string $menu
     * @param array $args
     * @return string
     */
    function ja_logo_to_nav($menu, $args) {
    	$args = (array)$args;
    	if ( 'primary' !== $args['theme_location']  )
    		return $menu;
    	$logo = '<li id="logoNav"><img src="'.get_bloginfo('stylesheet_directory').'/images/logo.png" /></li> ';
    	return $logo . $menu;
    }

    and this to style.css

    /* Add Logo to left of nav bar*/
    #logoNav {
    	float: left;}
    
    #logoNav img {
    	max-height: 50px;
    	margin-top: 12px;
    }

    Adjust the CSS as required.
    It should work. Let me know how it goes.

    Ok Rasor!!!

    AWESOME!

    This did the trick, now needs to move at the same line with the menu links 🙂

    I guess that's a CSS trick right?

    My best wishes for the new year!

    Did you add the css I provided above to your style sheet? That should bring in inline.

    Looks okay on my computer. Maybe you need to clear you cache.
