• Hey guys
    I am currently having problems trying to figure out how to remove the ‘about me’ sections from pages section of my blog.

    iamjarrod.net is my blog

    As you can see there is no ‘about me’ section on the top part of the home screen, however, on every other page there is a big blue line across the top with an ‘about me’ section link. I would like to know how to get rid of the blue line and the link to my ‘about me’ section without actually having to delete the ‘about me’ page.

    Thanks

    Jarrod

    That’s your menu. Go to Appearances->Menu to edit it.

    If you want to remove the menu (a bad idea, IMHO), you can do that through CSS. You might consider, instead, adding “Home”.

    To hide it

    .header .navigation { display:none; }

    If your theme does not have a custom CSS option, use the plugin “Simple Custom CSS” to add one.

    Okay I will give that a try. Thanks so much!

    Okay the theme does have a custom css. I have cut and paste your code into the CSS, but it’s still the same. should there be any type of delay in the CSS coding showing on my blog?

    It seems you’re using a caching plugin, W3 Total Cache. Clear the cache.

    Okay I cleared the cache. Just to be sure what i’m doing here.

    I went to appearance>Edit CSS

    and then added your code to the next available line. Is this correct?

    I seem to still have the blue line with the menu visible

    No. Do not use appearance->edit. Any changes you make there will be lost when you update your theme.

    That’s why I specifically asked you about a custom CSS option and suggested a plugin.

    Okay, I have installed the plugin ‘Simple Custom CSS’ I have also added your CSS code within the plugin to hide the menu. This has not worked.

    Any other ideas would be greatly appreciated ??

    Thanks

    Please disable the caching plugin on your site until we figure this out.

    You added this in style.css

    }.header .navigation {
    	display: none;
    }

    it should be

    .header .navigation {
    	display: none;
    }

    Okay, I replace the old code with the new code that you have given me and pasted it style.css.

    Should I be pasting the same code in ‘Simple custom CSS’?

    I have pasted in both with no changes :/

    It’s still incorrect. This is from style.css. Remove it from here and put it in the custom CSS.

    /* -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- */
    /*	0.	CSS Reset
    /* -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- */
    
    html, body { margin:0; padding:0;}
    
    }.header .navigation {
    	display: none;
    }

    just this goes there

    .header .navigation {
    	display: none;
    }
