wp_list_pages -> no title and dot

    Dear wordpress users,

    I have a problem and I think its pretty hard to fix. But maybe you guys know a good way, there must be one becouse there are websites who use this.

    My goal: Having a nice horizontal menu

    my website: https://web-bart.nl/wordpress

    my problem: Like you’ve maybe seen on the website, I have a horizontal menu. This was not very hard to make, and is not the problem. But the problem is that the title is called in the center of the menu. It is showed like pagina’s.

    I’vs had found a function to fix this. But it gives a result that I dont realy like. Here is a overvieuw to see what what shows:

    wp_list_pages('sort_column=menu_order & title_li=''');

    here I have 4 single quotes in 1 line, and the browser doesn’t understand this.

    wp_list_pages('sort_column=menu_order & title_li=('')')

    Here are again 4 single quotes but in parentheses (shouldn’t know whats the name of this character in englisch)

    wp_list_pages('sort_column=menu_order & title_li=');

    Here my whole lay-out is mashed up. The lay-out of the menu is gone. The menu-items are listen (vertical).

    wp_list_pages('sort_column=menu_order & title_li=""');

    This is almost exactly the option what I’m looking for. Only here are the double quotations printed. And the dot in front of the title is still visable.

    wp_list_pages('sort_column=menu_order & title_li=" "');

    I was thinking, lets try it with a space in it. But this mashed up my menu totaly. The menu-background are connected with all other menu- items, with stripes to be exact. And the menu is putted up. But the menu is readable, the links works, and the dot and title are gone. But there must be a way to make this more nice.

    Do someone of you developers know how to fix this?

    Kind regards,

    web-bart

    P.s Maybe this is too much information, maybe too little. But I dont know what information you need.

    depending on ‘title_li’ the html structure is different;

    try and use:

    <div class="navigation">
                	<ul><?php wp_list_pages('sort_column=menu_order & title_li='); ?></ul>
....

    and adjust your css styles for the menu a little bit.

    Thanks, it worked to remove the letters. But it have the same effect as:

    wp_list_pages('sort_column=menu_order & title_li=" "');

    what I discribe above.

    Kind regards,

    Webbart.

    P.s If you mean that I’ll have to change the css by using this; please tell me what I have to change. Here is the css-style of this code:

    the html structure first:

    <div id=menu>
      <div id="navigation">
           <?php wp_list_pages(....)?>
      </div>
</div>

    and the css:

    div.navigation ul li {
		float: left;
		list-style:none;
		margin-right:15px;
		margin-top:-36px;
		font-size:40px;
		color:#333;
		background-color:#ccc;
				height: 50px;
				width: auto;
				-moz-border-radius: 1em 4em 1em 4em;
				border-radius: 1em 4em 1em 4em;
				padding-left:20px;
				padding-right:20px;
}
div.navigation ul li a:link, a:visited, a:active, a:hover{
		color:#333;
		text-decoration:none;
}
#menu{
		width:100%;
		height:50px;;
		background-color:#333;
}

    noone who can help me? I know its a complicated problem, but I’ve seen so many wordpress websites with a horizontal menu with no title and no dot.

    kind regards,

    not complicated at all – the codex shows clearly how to avoid getting the ‘pages’ title;
    and removing bullets is just css which is not the main focus of this forum.

    https://www.w3schools.com/css/

    and for exploring the css selectors of a site, you can use a free tool such as https://getfirebug.com/

    try my suggestion again, and stay with it; then please post here again, so someone might have a look at it.

    this might shift your menu a bit, which can be adjusted with changes to the css styles.

    I know how css works. Already for 0.5 years. I’ve used the codex but I’ve realy no idea what to do… And changing the css is abit hard when you dont know what the tagg does with the layout. shift it up, and there are comming more graphics in stead of less. And I dont know how to delete graphics with css. And another problem is that I’m just 16 years old my englisch is a bit a problem. Becouse the most websites (and the codex) are in englisch…
