No Link on main parent page in 1st tier nav?

[Debra]

code by Craig

That will require you to hard-code your navbar menu, which is okay if you are not going to add any new Parent pages.

Find this block of code in header.php:

<div id="navbarleft">
<ul id="nav">[*]Home
<?php wp_list_pages('title_li=&depth=4&sort_column=menu_ order'); ?>[/list] </div>


Change it using this sample and addition of your pages:

<div id="navbarleft">
<ul id="nav">[*]Home[*]YOUR PAGE NAME HERE
<ul><?php wp_list_pages('title_li=&depth=4&sort_column=menu_ order&child_of=X'); ?>[/list] [*]YOUR NEXT PAGE NAME HERE
<ul><?php wp_list_pages('title_li=&depth=4&sort_column=menu_ order&child_of=X'); ?>[/list] [/list] </div>


You will need to create blank Pages for each Parent even though you are not going to use the page.
Replace the 'X' in each child_of= setting with the Page ID of the Parent.
Review this article to get the Page ID number for each Parent page.
