How to block page navigation listing?

  • I’m using twenty ten 1.2 at https://www.connection-junction.com/, and I’m wondering and hoping if there’s something I can do to stop individual pages from showing their name in the navigation panel at the top of the home page?
    It’s getting way too cluttered and I’ve been able to divide the pages into reference index and a photo library index, but with all of the names showing in the panel is way overkill.
    I tried deleting the pages name in its title box but that creates a blank space among the other names, with 15 names I need to get rid of it’ll create havoc, not to mention I won’t know what page/s I’m looking at in the page internal index.
    I’m very new to php, so a simple explanation would really help. I did search all over the place but haven’t been able to locate any threads on this topic.
    Many thanks

  • Go to Dashboard -> Appearance -> Menus.

    Create a custom menu.

    Apply the custom menu to the appropriate Theme Location.

    Thats what I’ve already done, and is how I was able to divide the data into files or images, by creating a separate menu.
    Trouble is that if the page is set for the public to see, as opposed to private, then all the pages names appears in the top of home page navigation, its a cluttered mess and I’d like to reduce 50% of them.
    I had hoped that by creating a custom menu that it would automatically remove those page names on the nav area, but no such luck.

    The reason that Plugin has any impact whatsoever is because you’re not using Custom Nav Menus. Your site is using a fallback function, either wp_list_pages() or wp_page_menu().

    Again: you may have defined custom menus, but you didn’t apply a custom menu to a Theme Location. Go to Dashboard -> Appearance -> Menus, and apply your custom menu to a defined Theme Location.
