Customise top menu and footer menu

  • Hello everyone.

    I am trying to have my main nav bar at the top showing only 3 of the 10 or so pages I have on my site. This is because I do not want the top nav to be too cluttered as I am going to add social media to it as well..

    i know I can make the pages not appear there by making them drafts, but I DO want the pages to be visible, and they need to be navigable to from the footer!!

    I know about custom menus, but the theme I have does not support multiple menus except in the sidebar.

    I want to keep the original styling of the topnav, but just have it display 3 things, not all of them please Thankyou.

  • What theme are you using? Where did you download it from?

    Hello thanks for your reply,

    We made the theme using this tutorial. It is really simple.

    The theme is simple I mean.

    If you are creating this theme yourself, then you can make the top nav custom menu-ready, yes?

    Sorry how would I make the top nav custom menu ready please?

    I am a bit new to this.

    Should I post a link to the site so you can take a look?

    Thanks for your support esmi.

    See Navigation_Menus.

    If I make the topnav custom menu ready, will it keep it’s current styling?

    OK looks good. You think this is it? Thanks.

    That’s really down to your existing CSS and how you implement wp_nav_menu().

    Great we’ll get stuck into that now and I guess if we can’t do it I’ll be back.

    Thanks a Squillion !!!!!!!

    No problem. If you do need further help on implementing custom menus in your theme, post a new topic and try to be as specific as you can – both within the post itself and in its title. That’s usually the best way to get help quickly.

    Good luck with the theme. ??

    Thanks.

    Hey, Get me!

    I just did this and it worked!

    <?php wp_list_pages(array(‘title_li’=>”,’exclude’=>’4,5,7’,));?>

    No more pesky unwanted page posts in the header.

    This still leaves me with the problem of placing a custom menu in my footer, to have the content for THOSE menu items (in the footer menu) display in expanding pages in the footer.

    I’m going to try custom menus or html5 in the footer and then if I get stuck I may post a new thread.

    Thanks again.
