Static pages not linked to main menu?

remove the list_pages tag from your header.php

Or control the pages that appear in your top main menu with a plugin like Exclude Pages.

Thanks. I tried the Exclude Pages plugin but it gave me all sorts of problems.

If I excluded more than 3 or so, it would start removing links from my top navigation bar. it’s really strange.

Is it possible to make “Child” pages not appear in a menu?

Any other suggestions?
Thanks

<?php wp_list_pages('title_li=&depth=1');?>

I thought that’s what you wanted: to selectively have pages not appear in your top navigation bar. Search for other people who need to exclude pages with or without the plugin and read what they’re found.
