bp_nav_menu_get_loggedout_pages()

Create fake “post” objects for BP’s logged-out nav menu for use in the WordPress “Menus” settings page.

Description

WordPress nav menus work by representing post or tax term data as a custom post type, which is then used to populate the checkboxes that appear on Dashboard > Appearance > Menu as well as the menu as rendered on the front end. Most of the items in the BuddyPress set of nav items are neither posts nor tax terms, so we fake a post-like object so as to be compatible with the menu.

Return

(mixed) A URL or an array of dummy pages.
