No options for view menu items

This is the case for any module-provided, any code/config provided menu item, as opposed to menu links (content).

This does need to be better documented on the user page.

And of course it would be great if we could add attributes to these machine-provided menu items.

A workaround is to create a custom menu link through the interface that links to your view, but is not itself provided by the view.

Igor Mashevskyi → made their first commit to this issue’s fork.

I tried the MR against 1.3 and the latest dev and I got an error when I tried to edit the menu link.

TypeError: _menu_link_attributes_add_attributes(): Argument #2 ($menu_link_options) must be of type array, null given, called in /var/www/html/web/modules/contrib/menu_link_attributes/src/Plugin/Menu/Form/ViewsMenuLinkWithAttrForm.php on line 19 in _menu_link_attributes_add_attributes() (line 46 of modules/contrib/menu_link_attributes/menu_link_attributes.module).

Merge error

@Igor Mashevskyi any plans to finish this?

@anybody I've resolved the merge error, so MR is mergeable now

Thanks @Igor Mashevskyi I left a few comments. Nice work.

Maybe @mlncn wants to have a look afterwards, what he thinks?

It works great!

With one strange caveat— the attributes collapsed fieldset is also shown when editing the menu item from the view, which is great, but while it showed my class and target that i had set when editing the menu link through the Menu UI, it did not show the container_class that i had set (which, to be fair, never worked as intended, showing on the link itself as container_class not the item surrounding it) and saving the menu link from the view resulting in stripping that container_class out. Minor, but worth opening an immediate bug report after this feature goes in if it cannot be solved right away.

Note that Igor Mashevskyi's patch does this for views-provided menu links; it does not provide attributes for other system-provided menu links, or at least not for the user account / login links.

Thank you for this!
