how to delete theme’s default nav menu item?

  • hello everyone.

    i’m setting up a blog that uses a static page for the home page. the theme i am using (liasorangec) has a default “home” link that is set in the nav bar. i am not able to access it in the pages section in my dashboard. the result is that i have 2 links in the main nav that go to the same spot – the page i created that is set to be the static page (“welcome to our studio”) and the default “home” link. how do i delete the “home” link?

  • You need to edit the relevant template file in your theme. It could be sidebar-xxx.php or header.php. Look for a reference to <div id="top-menu">.

    Once you’ve found the relevant block of code, remove the line:

    <li><a href="<?php bloginfo('url')">Home</a></li>

    I have a similar issue in that I want “Contact” to appear only in the footer. I have it working in both places, but I don’t want it to appear in the menu at the top of the page.

    I’ve looked in header.php, sidebar1.php, and functions.php, but I don’t see the code you’re referring to.

    I do see that if I comment out this code from header.php…:
    <?php art_menu_items(); ?>
    …that the menu I’m referring to goes away entirely; but I need to remove only one item from the list, not the whole menu.

    Any ideas???
