    Hi, i’ve created a new page template and would like to remove the main navigation menu. I can’t see the code for the main_nav in the new custompage.php so assume the method is through functions.php.

    Can anyone point me in the right direction?? Thanks

    I’m using affilotheme although i don’t think there are much difference, i would be surprised if people knew this theme. If not, can you tell me how to do it with twentyeleven and i can work it from there.

    I cannot find the theme. Can we have a link to your site.

    have you looked in header.php for the navigation code?

    On what page(s) don’t you want to show the navigation? Have you looked in your header.php for something simular to this:

    <?php wp_nav_menu( array( 'theme_location' => 'primary' ) ); ?>

    The page i am working on is not live yet as its unfinished. I’ve looked in header.php but can’t find anything like that code.

    You can hide the menu with css in combination with the body_class() which your theme is allready using.

    This example (in your themes stylesheet style.css) will hide the navigation menu on the “About” page:

    .page-id-34 #wrapper-navigation {
    display: none;
}

    For a custom page template file “custom_template.php” you could use:

    .page-template-custom-template-php #wrapper-navigation {
    display: none;
}

    Tried this but menu is still showing up

    .page_no_nav #wrapper-navigation {display: none !important;}

    Ok, got it. I can remove it using the first example you gave by using the page id. This is preferable too because i may want some page that use this custom template to have a nav.

    Thanks for your help keesiemeijer!!!
