Hi @giveawayads!
Glad you’re enjoying Intergalactic!
1. I have no menu’s in the menu tab of wp-admin, but the site has my pages on a menu (pages i want hidden).
Intergalactic uses the default setting of showing a list of your pages when you don’t have a menu set – so if you’d like only specific pages shown, you can build a menu with just those pages under Appearance > Menus.
If you want no menu at all, then you’ll want to set up a child theme so you can safely edit things.
Once your child theme is ready, copy the header.php file from the parent theme into your child theme folder. Look for this line near the end of the file (on oraround line 42):
<?php wp_nav_menu( array( 'theme_location' => 'primary' ) ); ?>
You want to replace it with this:
<?php wp_nav_menu( array( 'theme_location' => 'primary', 'fallback_cb' => FALSE ) ); ?>
We’re basically telling WordPress not to use any fallback when the menu is empty ??
2. There is a lot of empty space. How can i put html elements in those areas? (ads specifically?). Right now i can only put them in the sidebar, posts, and the middle of pages (not the side of pages…)
Inserting ads on the sides of pages will be a bit more involved.
You’d want to start by copying the parent theme’s content-page.php and/or page.php files into your child theme. Then you could add your HTML and position it as needed – keep in mind though, that you’ll want to make sure you have some CSS media queries in place to move or hide the ads on smaller screens – people visiting your site on a phone or tablet may not have room for the content and the ads side by side!
3. How can i remove the comment section for posts?
You can use Settings > Discussion to turn off comments for new content.
On things you’ve already written, you can edit them and look for the Discussion tab to enable/disable comments for each individual post.
You can also use Bulk Editing to turn commenting on or off for several posts at a time.
