Sidebar Issues Please Help

This is incorrect:
<?php wp_list_pages('depth=0');('sort_column=menu_order&child&title_li='); ?>

Try using:
<?php wp_list_pages('depth=0&sort_column=menu_order&child&title_li='); ?>

With regard to your styling problem, you’ll need to edit your theme’s stylesheet.

interesting the code I had has been working. I will try your code as well. Is it just a style sheet issue that needs to be fixed for the drop down menu? I have tried so many things so am lost at this moment. I am pretty sure I have tried changing the stylesheet & wrapping it around the php, but it did not work.

Is it just a style sheet issue that needs to be fixed for the drop down menu?

Probably but without seeing the site, I can’t offer any specific suggestions.

the site is: https://newjerseycommunitycapital.org/, if you click on about us you will see the links show up in the drop down. those links are supposed to look like: https://www.verdipro.com/clients/njcc/aboutus/

I am trying to do this while keeping everything dynamic so that any children pages added under parent pages show up on the site.

The first thing you really need to do is sort out the markup errors on the page. You have what looks like an unordered list for your nav menu but there’s no list markup!

yup i replaced my code with your code. site navigation still shows up exactly the same so both codes seem to work, this is what the update looks like:

<div id=”sidebar”>

<?php if ( function_exists(‘dynamic_sidebar’) && dynamic_sidebar(‘Sidebar’) ) : else : ?>
<div id=”sidebartext”>
<?php wp_list_pages(‘depth=0&sort_column=menu_order&child&title_li=’); ?>
</div><!– #sideBartext –>
<?php endif; ?>

</div><!– #sideBar –>

Try using:

<div id="sidebartext">
<ul>
<?php wp_list_pages('title_li='); ?>
</ul>
</div>

its weird, the code is missing the UL statements. If I add your code above it completely removes the nav text visibly (but the items are clickable on the left). The code on screen looks like:
<div id=”sidebartext”>

<class=”page_item page-item-15″>Home

<class=”page_item page-item-2 current_page_item”>About Us

</div>

In my style.css I do have a tag for #children & #page_item.
