如何使用Inspector在主题的PHP文件中查找HTML？

Question

I'm working on a Wordpress website for someone and I have a question. I used an inspector (firebug) to check out the html of my site but I need to know where to find that bit of code in the Wordpress theme (Spacing) php files. There's no search all feature and going through all of them separately is ridiculous.

I really appreciate any help you can offer!!

I found an article on it (https://wordpress.org/support/topic/search-through-php-files) but there really wasn't a solution. If I can find what I'm looking for in the HTML (it's a menu name by the way), why can't I go find it in the theme files??

I don't know if this matters but the HTML is a body class to a couple of div classes to a ul id to li id to an a class.

If you go into the back-end/admin section and click "Pages". Find the page you are working on and click edit. In the "Page Attributes" you can see what "Template" it is using.

Then you can find that template in /wp-content/themes/yourtheme/

EDIT: More than likely the header and navigation is located in the "header.php" file in the themes folder.
