    Hi there,

    I want to remove a page from the navigation bar so that visitors would only be able to visit this page if I gave them the URL.

    I am using Cordobo Green Park 2 theme and my URL is https://www.musicteacherjobsolutions.com.

    The URL of the page I want to hide is here:
    https://www.musicteacherjobsolutions.com/thank-you-for-your-interest-were-updating/

    I’ll paste the code for my header.php below. Can someone help? I’m a total newbie at the coding aspect of WP.

    Here is the code of my header.php…thanks again.

    Change this:

    <ul id="menu"><li class="page-item-home <?php if ( is_home() ) { ?> current_page_item <?php } ?>"><a href="<?php echo get_option('home'); ?>/"><?php _e('Home', 'default'); ?></a></li><?php greenpark_globalnav() ?></ul>

    to this:

    <ul id="menu"><li class="page-item-home <?php if ( is_home() ) { ?> current_page_item <?php } ?>"><a href="<?php echo get_option('home'); ?>/"><?php _e('Home', 'default'); ?></a></li><?php wp_list_pages('title_li=&exclude=PAGEID'); ?></ul>

    In the above code, change “PAGEID” to the page ID you wish to exclude. To find the page ID, go in your admin panel and go to the Pages section. Hover over a page and view the link, and see the “post=##”. The ## is your page ID.

    Hope that helps.

    You can use a bit of CSS to “remove” a page from your navigation menus (your page listing displays, too).

    First, you will need the ID of the page you want to remove, in this case the page you linked above. For example, let’s say its ID is 23.

    Add to the end of your style.css file in your active theme folder:

    .page-item-23 {display: none;} /* Removes page ID #23 from displays */

    Thanks! I’ll give it a shot and let you know if these work!

    @cais:

    That method could work but i believe there is a more straightforward way in using wordpress’ template tags.

    @hellomatt – Yes, editing the wp_list_pages() functions may be a bit cleaner from a coding perspective, but a simple line of CSS can work wonders, too.

    It would just be my preference to edit (read: add) one line of CSS versus editing at least two lines in the header and possibly more in the functions.php file under the greenpark_globalnav() call.

    You have a point, I guess it’s just a matter of preference.

    It still confuses me why the theme called on globalnav. I installed the same theme, but a newer version and that function wasn’t there – they are using wp_list_pages in the newer version. I installed the theme to try to see the functions.php but obviously it turned out to be irrelevant in assisting me.

    @hellomatt – I didn’t go so far as to download the theme and install it to test (good job!)
    I wrote a post a while back called Hide a Menu Page that goes into more detail of using CSS this way.

    Hi,

    I saw this topic and have a same problem. I need to exclude/hide some pages from my header nav bar. Below is my header.php code:

	<!-- END header -->

	<!-- BEGIN body -->

    I’ve solved the problem. tks!

    I just figured out how to do it. This will allow you to exclude them, while ordering them however you want if that is your preference.

    Open up the “functions.php” file for the theme and replace the portion under
    “# Displays a list of pages”. It is located in your theme (/wp-content/themes/{name of your theme’s folder}/functions.php

    Replace:

    $querystr = “SELECT $wpdb->posts.ID, $wpdb->posts.post_title FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE $wpdb->posts.post_status = ‘publish’ AND $wpdb->posts.post_type = ‘page’ ORDER BY $wpdb->posts.post_title ASC”;

    With:

    $querystr = “SELECT $wpdb->posts.ID, $wpdb->posts.post_title FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE $wpdb->posts.post_status = ‘publish’ AND $wpdb->posts.post_type = ‘page’ ORDER BY $wpdb->posts.menu_order ASC”;

    It took me three days to find this, so I figure I’d share. WordPress does not have a great support system, so if you can pass this on, please do. Please copy and paste the link to this post to other inquiries.

    I’m not very good at all the coding. Couldn’t make heads or tales of it.
    I did however find a nice little plug-in that addressed the issue for me rather well.

    “Exclude Pages from Navigation”

    ^Yep, that’s the name of it.

    Hi all. I am posting my header.php as well. In this template there is no wp_list_pages() function and even with the “Exclude” plugin I cant seem to exclude pages from the header
