Menu Item Badges adds two simple fields to every menu item in Appearance → Menus:
- Badge (Text) – e.g. NEU, AKTION, WM 2026
- Badge Color (optional) – set a custom hex color like #e74c3c
Badges are rendered as a clean pill-shaped label right next to the menu item title on the frontend. Perfect for seasonal campaigns, promotions, and important navigation entries (e.g. “Public Viewing Technik mieten” → “WM 2026”).
No theme editing required.
