Vantage theme, membership site, different menus for members only?

I’m working with the Vantage theme, installed/am using eMember for a membership site, would like to have different navigation menus for visitors/non-members and logged-in/members. I found this documentation:

Show Different Navigation Menu to your Members and Non-members


but I’m not able to find the corresponding code in the Editor (see step 5 in the above documentation). Am I able to use the code in the document above to show different navigation menus for members/non-members (and if so, how?) or if not, does this require upgrading to premium and is there documentation in the premium upgrade to help me do this?
…or is this not possible using this theme?

Your reply and help is very appreciated.

    Hi Christene

    Please remember that changing any themes files via the editor is not recommended unless those files are already placed in a child theme. Any changes you make to files in the main theme folder will be overwritten the next time you update Vantage.

    Here is how to create a child theme: https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes. You will need to re-do your Appearance > Customize settings after activating a child theme.

    Here is how your child theme’s style.css file should/can look:

    /* Theme Name:   Vantage Child Author:       SiteOrgin Template:     vantage Version:      1.0*/@import url("../vantage/style.css");

    Create a folder in your child theme called “parts” and into that copy the menu.php file from the parts folder in the parent theme. Line 17 is the line you’re looking for in relation to the tutorial you posted.
