Manipulate HTML in custom Drupal menu












0














I have a custom menu in Drupal, where I want to apply bootstrap classes to. The menu doesn't sit at the normal positions, however. It's placed in a panel that I created with the panels modules.



I tied so many different things that I found, like this tutorial:
http://www.nybergtechnology.com/blog/2013/11/11/druapl-7-dropdown-menu-using-twitter-bootstrap



However, using something like this



function mytheme_menu_link( array $variables ) {
return '<li class="my-class">something</li>';
}


doesn't change anything in any of my menus. This doesn't seem to be the right approach. Do you have any idea how I can manipulate the html of custom menus?



I'm using Drupal 7.
