Good thought, so I open it in Chrome and the email address field is blank, which, as I come to think of it, is what they ALL should be for the customer to fill in.

BUT, now the admin email address is in the postcode field!

I’m thinking it must be some sort of cache issue,

thanks of your help

Hi it doesn’t work for me and I don’t understand the above fix as I am a layperson with limited knowledge – is there any hope for me?

Any help much appreciated.

Doh!

thanks

AHA!

I think I get what you mean!

I looked up Menus and read abut them..

So… I created TWO menus – one with Home in it and the other with Home and the Blog category in it, I made the Home one the Primary Menu and the one with both a Footer menu just as a test and deleted it.

I had no idea Pages HAD to be added to a Menu you create in order to get rid of the ‘Category’ page and intriguingly, this is not something that came up in any Google searches, which I find odd.

When you say you HAVE to create a menu for people to see your pages – thats not true is it? If I create a series of pages they all go into the nav bar automatically without me having to do anything.

Correct me if I am wrong but it seems like THE ONLY REASON I have needed to create a menu in this case is to get rid of the (previously) undeletable ‘category’ ‘uncategorisable’?

Anyway,thanks again, I got there in the end.

Really? It seems like a WordPress feature that is tripping me up.

If you could just give me one post with step by step instructions from beginning to end.

I have gone to Appearance-Menu and created one, added my one page (Home) and made another (Menu 2) and added the category which has the blog page, but if I delete it it remains in the nav bar.

AND If people need a menu to see my pages then why is my Home page clearly visible without one?

I only want 4 pages or so and I was under the impression that all I had to do was create them and they would appear in the nav bar as is the case, so why is a menu necessary?

Two pages ‘Home’ is good but I have an unwanted page that says – Welcome to WordPress. This is your first post. Edit or delete it, then start blogging!

But it isn’t a page – it’s a ‘category’ (apparently) – and I have learnt I can change the name of it which is what I did in an experiment but what I really want is to do is delete it OR turn it into a regular page that I can make into ‘Gallery’ or ‘About’ or something.

I made my Home page a static page. I don’t understand why this ‘category’ item is needed if a Page can be turned into a blog?

Can you turn a category into a page? Now that would be handy.

But how does that help me get rid of the blog? I don’t really want to be creating menus do I?

Thanks but I can’t see how to remove it there, there only seems to be an option to Create a Menu

Thanks for you help

I’ve done that – I have one page which is ‘Home’ but in my nav bar I have Home and the blog ‘category’so it’s like a page but it isn’t one – i.e. it can’t be deleted.
