Update: Here is the final code I ended up using in my functions file:

class Footer_Walker extends Walker_Nav_Menu { function start_el(&$output, $item, $depth = 0, $args = array(), $id = 0) { $classes = empty($item->classes) ? array () : (array) $item->classes; $class_names = join(' ', apply_filters( 'nav_menu_css_class', array_filter( $classes ), $item ) ); !empty ( $class_names ) and $class_names = ' class="'. esc_attr( $class_names ) . '"'; $output .= "<div class='col-sm-6 col-md-3'>"; $attributes = ''; !empty( $item->attr_title ) and $attributes .= ' title="' . esc_attr( $item->attr_title ) .'"'; !empty( $item->target ) and $attributes .= ' target="' . esc_attr( $item->target ) .'"'; !empty( $item->xfn ) and $attributes .= ' rel="' . esc_attr( $item->xfn ) .'"'; !empty( $item->url ) and $attributes .= ' href="' . esc_attr( $item->url ) .'"'; $title = apply_filters( 'the_title', $item->title, $item->ID ); $item_output = $args->before . "<a $attributes>" . $args->link_before . $title . '</a></div>' . $args->link_after . $args->after; $output .= apply_filters( 'walker_nav_menu_start_el', $item_output, $item, $depth, $args ); } } 

And here's the code to generate the menu in your template:

<?php wp_nav_menu(array('menu' => 'Footer', 'items_wrap'=> '%3$s', 'walker' => new Footer_Walker(), 'container'=>false, 'menu_class' => '', 'theme_location'=>'footer', 'fallback_cb'=>false )); ?> 

I would like to set up a custom menu walker to remove the unordered list and wrap each individual link in a custom div element. The desired output would look like this:

<div class="col-md-3"><a href="linkurl">Link Title</a></div> 

This is what I have tried so far:

<? wp_nav_menu( array( 'menu' => 'Main', 'container' => '', 'items_wrap' => '%3$s', 'link_before' => '<div class="col-md-3">', 'link_after' => '</div>' ) ); ?> 

However the above code is producing this output:

<li class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page menu-item-47"> <a href="linkurl"><div class="col-md-3">Link Title</div></a> </li> 

Here is my updated attempt based on the resource shared by @shahar:

<?php wp_nav_menu( array('menu' => 'Main', 'walker' => new Footer_Walker()) ); ?> 

And in my functions.php:

class Footer_Walker extends Walker_Nav_Menu { function start_el(&$output, $item, $depth=0, $args=array()) { $output .= "<div class='test'>".esc_attr($item->label); } function end_el(&$output, $item, $depth=0, $args=array()) { $output .= "</div>\n"; } } 

Using the code above the menu is not displaying at all.
