    Hi There,
    pretty new to wordpress!
    Funny problem, I have no idea how to fix:
    My menu bar loads fine at first, but when I click on the Home Menu item two unrelated menu items suddenly appear highlighted (Community & Misc).
    Wordpress 3.6 on IE 10

    Not a biggy, but annoying none the less.
    Cheers,
    Olaf

  • That is not the original Twenty Ten theme. Re-upload a fresh, unpacked, copy of the Twenty Ten folder to wp-content/themes using FTP or whatever file management application your host provides.

    Thank you for your quick reply, esmi.
    Your advise reminds me of the old Microsoft joke:
    A car with 4 engineers suddenly stalls. The Microsoft engineer solution: Lets all get out of the car and then in again. That should do it!
    I take it this forum is not right one for my problem. My bad…

    You might check on these two CSS errors – IE doesn’t like invalid code:

    /* This is the custom header image */
    #branding img {

    }

    <-- .... --> are HTML comment tags
    CSS uses /* .... */

    BTW, esmi’s comment was based on the inadvisability of modifying a default theme rather than using a child theme –

    Hi WPyogi,
    Thanks for that, much appreciated.
    Just goes to show: “A little knowledge is a dangerous thing!”
    Thanks also for the BTW – I wasn’t confident enough to use a child theme (but reckless enough to muck up the default theme).
