Place the code in child/active theme's functions.php.
You need to replace
if( is_page( 'about' ) ) {
with the if conditional where you want to display another nav menu in the Primary Navigation location.
For example:
Changing it to
if ( is_home() ) {
will display the menu you're going to set in L21 when you visit your Posts page (the Page set at Settings > Reading).
About Page Menu
in
$args['menu'] = 'About Page Menu';
with the name of the custom menu you'd like to be shown in the Primary Navigation location when on the page set in #1 above.
Thank you, it worked perfectly. I replaced is_page
with !is_front_page
because I needed a different menu for all pages but the front page.

How exactly do I use this code? What do I replace and where do I put it in wordpress?
Thanks!
