Main Menu

is there a way for me to reduce the horizontal padding of each item in my menu so that they will all stay on one line? if you take a look at my site you will see what i mean. looks pretty dumb lol and i will eventually want to add another item there as well.

    ok, as usual, i have a few more questions . . .

    so:

    1. horizontal menu padding, as per the original post

    2. how do i create a drop down menu off one of the items in my main menu . . . when someone hovers over my passions i want the child pages of my passions to display but i cant remember how to do it

    3. what does the order in the page attributes do?

    I’m having the exact same problem. I’d actually like to “hide” the members page, but I don’t know how.

    #3 the order determines the order they appear on the menu I believe.

    I’ll gladly help you once I fix my FUBAR. http://www.lifewithdj.com I can’t even access my website, nor my admin panel. Trying to do a FTP restore of my latest backup. I’ll let you know how if someone hasn’t already once (if) I get up and running again. I know how, I just have to do it as I explain it.

    Hi Zach

    Horizontal menu padding can be adjusted using the following in Appearance > Custom CSS:

    /* Menu Padding Horizontal */
    
    .main-navigation ul li a {
    padding-right: 25px !important;
    padding-left: 25px !important;
    }
    

    To create a drop down menu, head to Appearance > Menus, if you have a custom menu assigned there you can just drag pages or links one level deeper to make them into a drop down.

    Page order is used by some widgets. It’s also nice to view your pages in the admin in the order they make sense in.

    Dakotah, you can control you which items appear in your menu by creating a custom menu at Appearance > Menus. Once you’ve created a custom menu assign it to the theme’s primary menu location. This can be done under your custom menu or using the Manage Locations tab.

    For further help please open a new support thread and we’ll jump in there.
