How do I change the word Start to Home in the menu

have you set up your menu? Appearance>menus
you have to create a menu and the menu item can be renamed there
does that work?

“have you set up your menu? Appearance>menus”

Sorry I don’t understand the question. I’m just letting wordpress create the menu from the pages being created. Not sure why I would have to create a menu. I’ve never had to create a menu before. I’m not creating a custom menu here. This is just the basic navigation driven by wordpress. For some reason, it’s not taking the page name like it usually does and using it in the menu. I’ve never had this happen before. All my other pages are working fine. It’s just the home page that’s not cooperating. It’s named Home not Start but the menu doesn’t recognize that.

if you created a menu, it might override the problem

maybe you should just try it first, bc it is a solution that works

I’ve never done custom menu’s before. Will it automatically add to the custom menu when I add a page?

custom menus are great. they give u more control over your menu.
when you add a new page, no it does not automatically add it to the menu, which is great if you want a page to exist but not show on your menu.

add each page to the menu that you want showing, in the order you place them, and name them as you wish (even different than the set page title)

make sure you activate the menu you create by selecting it in the drop down list on the left also, a common mistep.

good luck

you can also add external url’s as a menu item in addition to pages and blog posts.

“when you add a new page, no it does not automatically add it to the menu”
That’s the problem. I need it to automatically add the page as I’m not going to be maintaining this site. The person who will needs to be able to add pages on the fly without worrying about having to update the menu also. Should I just use another theme?

yea use another theme then.
