Menu Item Created Automatically

  • Hi,

    Working on this site https://www.nyplaintiff.com/. Whenever I create a page it get’s added to the menu automatically and so I’m unable to create pages (since I don’t want my navigation to change).

    It’s using TwentyTen and All in ONE SEO. For pages that display a menu item there is an entry in Menu Label that get’s displayed on the menu. If I create a new page and omit this I still get a menu item. I also looked at existing pages that do not display and can see nothing different about them at all.

    Very frustrated.. I can create a new menu but I couldn’t figure out the colors.

    I found this in header.php:

    <div id=”access” role=”navigation” style=”margin-bottom:6px”>
    <?php /* Allow screen readers / text browsers to skip the navigation menu and get right to the good stuff */ ?>
    <div class=”skip-link screen-reader-text”>“><?php _e( ‘Skip to content’, ‘twentyten’ ); ?></div>
    <?php /* Our navigation menu. If one isn’t filled out, wp_nav_menu falls back to wp_page_menu. The menu assiged to the primary position is the one used. If none is assigned, the menu with the lowest ID is used. */ ?>
    <?php wp_nav_menu( array( ‘container_class’ => ‘menu-header’, ‘theme_location’ => ‘primary’ ) ); ?>
    </div>

    Any ideas?

    Thanks

  • Create a menu and assign theme location.

    After that it won’t use the fallback as default wp_page_menu() which is Pages.

    I tried that but when I create the menu it’s no longer color coded. Tried some CSS but I failed. Was hoping to learn how some are currently being excluded from the menu while anything new gets added.

    The color code is in theme main stylesheet. You can transfer this color code to new set of menu items. Just change the menu item class(or id) to the new ones.

    Your theme is Twentyten v1.2 and it’s directly edited as opposed to using a child theme.

    Depending on level of cusomization done to it. If not anything much you might want to create a child theme for it now for longevity of the project (Twentyten now is v1.6).

    Meanwhile, use this in a Custom CSS plugin, or if you know your way around WP and CSS just use it in the main stylesheet since it’s a custom theme anyway.

    #access { height: 44px; }

    This is only for temporary, so you will be able to create new pages and not worry about the CSS color code. New pages will be there in the menu markup but not visible in the front.
