Question

I have a content type with a field that associates a node with a month and year. I want an item in my main menu to always link to the node associated with the current month. How do I do this? There doesn’t seem to be a hook that will let me change the link before it’s printed…

Answer 1

Maybe if you dynamically add the menu item with menu_link_save, I’m not 100% sure if this will work for you, but in theory it should just be adding the item

menu_link_save(array(
    'link_path' => [drupal_get_normal_path][2]('path/to/monthly/content'),
    'link_title' => 'my custom monthly link',
    'menu_name' => 'menu_name_where_we_add_this_to'
));

Hope it helps.
