Wordpress Pages Question

Is there a way that I can create a page in Wordpress without having it go to the navigation bar on my home page.
So far every page I create goes onto the nav bar unless it is nested then it will fall under the nested category.

I was just wondering is there a way to prevent a page from showing on the main page even though it is published. I want to be able to link to it from the sidebar and posts instead of it clogging the nav bar.

 

Ok - I'm not quite sure if this is what you're asking, but I'll give it a shot....

I have blogs with tabs at the top that show all the pages. I don't want those to show. So I have to edit the theme:

- Go into Design, Theme Editor
- Select the Header (header.php)
- Scroll down to the bottom of the form and you will see a section devoted to "header"; usually a <div id="header">
- Look for this code:
<ul id="navi-bar">
<li><a href="<?php echo get_settings('home'); ?>">Home</a></li>
<?php wp_list_pages('title_li=' ); ?>
</ul>

You would delete the line in red.

If you want the pages to appear on the sidebar, then activate the page widget.

 

Correct and you can also add to the menu.

<div class="menu">
<ul>
<li class="<? echo (is_home())?'current_page_item':''; ?>"><a href="<?php echo get_option('home'); ?>/"><span>Home</span></a></li>

 

I only want to show certain pages. Say I have 3 pages and I want number 1 and 3 to appear on nav bar but 2 can not be seen there. Do I do it the same as said above?

 

You can also exclude pages like this.

<?php wp_list_pages('title_li=&exclude=1,2,3' ); ?>

Code (markup):

With 1, 2, and 3 being your page ID numbers.

 

Simply use the plugin called Page Link Manager and select the pages you want to appear on the navigation bar, its that simple!
