Emptiness duplicate pages in man menu?

Did you create the menu yourself and add it to a menu area in appearance -> menus?

Thanks for the response ??

No, it automatically made the main menu from my pages (which is exactly what i want, minus the duplications!)

I have never tried that but I have found that the duplicates go when I make a menu. I’d recommend that you do. You can tick a box which will auto add top levels to your menu so it’ll probably behave the way you want it to.

Great- have done that, thanks!

Worked a treat, only thing is now I’ve lost the ‘home’ tab that was auto made… Might be a stupid question, but how do i add a home page tab, that when clicked takes me to my homepage? Do i manually have to create a page…? (sorry- hope that makes sense!?)

Do you mean you have lost Home from the menu?

yep!

Create a page called home – add it to your menu. If this is the blog it should work ok.. I think.

I’ll be back tomorrow morning if it doesn’t.

yep, ive done that- however i need it to link to my front page (mydomain.com/testing) as currently it has no content on it…

thankyou for your help!

Check the settings in Settings -> Reading. you can change the front page and blog settings here. i.e. what your front page is (blog/static) etc.

Great, thanks, I never knew about those settings options ??

However- what Im trying to do, is have the front page (‘home’ link in the navigation) as a blog page, i/e most recent posts- however i have had to create the page ‘home’ so that i can set it as an option in the navigation (so from other pages the user can link back to the front page).
So, either i need to add blog posts to the ‘home’ page (this has to happen automatically so it is the most recent posts) or maybe there is a different way of creating a tab in the navigation that feeds straight back to the default front page without having to make a static page?

Sorry if this is a dumb question…

Thankyou so much for your time and knowledge

You could add a custom link to your menu. Go to your menu in Appearances>Menu, add your homepage URL and label ‘Home’ to the custom link section, add it to your menu and then drag it to where you want it to be.
