I thought there was since you wrote:
This is how my theme register menus:
function register_nav_menu( $location, $description ) { register_nav_menus( array( $location => $description ) );
}
So you have to register it yourself.
register_nav_menu( 'primary', __( 'Primary Menu', 'webello' ) );
in functions.php
then
<?php wp_nav_menu( array('theme_location' => 'primary', 'depth' => 3 ) ); ?>
where your menu is outputed.
