Container set to false not working.

In the video Zac Gordon tells to add this argument to remove the wrapper div, for me this is not working.

container => false

i also tried

container => ''

My header.php

<?php

$defaults = array(
     'container' => false,
    'theme_location' => 'primary-menu',
);
wp_nav_menu( 'defaults' );

?>

My functions.php

add_theme_support( 'menus' );

function register_theme_menus() {

    register_nav_menus(
        array (
            'primary-menu' => __( 'Primary Menu' )
        )
    );

}
add_action( 'init', 'register_theme_menus' );

Same for me Bas. Pretty poor that this hasn't been answered by some kind of admin as I've seen this problem a few times with no answer. I do see that in your code there is a comma that you need to remove from the last part of the array : 'theme_location' => 'primary-menu'

Solved it Bas. You need to go to manage locations in the menu are of the admin and at the bottom assign the menu to primary menu - then it will work.

Thanks for your reply Robert. When i go to the tab menu locations i have already selected the Primary Menu from the dropdown. I even called the menu Primary Menu. I still see the container around the ul element. What could it be?

Try "wp_nav_menu( $defaults );" in header.php
