How do I show only top level and first child pages in menu

  • I am using Twenty-Ten theme at the moment.
    I would like to only show the top level (parent-less) and first child pages (pages with parent that is top level) in the top menu.

    That means there would be just a single drop down menu and not a menu to the side of the drop down.

    Is there a way to do this?

    Or, perhaps there is a way that I can just mark a page as “Do not put me in the top menu.”

    Basically I need to have about 20 pages related to a particular area and do not want to have a huge menu in the header. I can just put links (list style) on an index type page.

    Any suggestions are most welcome.

    Thanks,
    Claude

    Turns out to be totally simple to do. If you know the functions, <sheepish grin> or know how to search in the documentation.

    On https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Function_Reference/wp_nav_menu there is an excellent run down on the wp_nav_menu function.

    The Twenty-Ten header.php file had the following line in it:

    <?php wp_nav_menu( array( 'container_class' => 'menu-header', 'theme_location' => 'primary') ); ?>

    I added ‘depth’ => ‘2’ and all was fine.

    <?php wp_nav_menu( array( 'container_class' => 'menu-header', 'theme_location' => 'primary', 'depth' => '2' ) ); ?>
