Hi, just re-installed WP with GP Premium after cache program problems, and starting site all over again.
Suddenly the horizontal navigation bar disappered. What did I do wrong, and what di I do to make it right again?
All the best

Do you have menu items added to your menu in "Appearance > Menus"?
Hi, Tom, no.
That would be why no menu items are showing up.
If you add some menu items, they will appear :)
Ok, items meaning?
Pages/categories/etc..
In order to have a navigation bar, you need menu items to populate the bar, so people have something to click on.
In "Appearance > Menus", you can add your pages to your navigation, so your users have menu items they can click on to navigate throughout your website.
Yes, of course, my fault.
But by doing so, adding pages, the page title also shows up in the post field (tekst box). So if I name the page Home, "Home" also heads the post field.
If I leave the name field open, a #(no title) name shows in the navigation.
Any way to avoid this, page name also in the text field/Box?
Best regards
Your best bet is to name the page title whatever you like while editing/adding the page.
Then in "Appearance > Menus", add the page to your menu, and expand it.
In there you can change the "Navigation Label" to "Home" or whatever you like.
Got it! At last I understand how it works making pages witout page names visible in the textboxes.
Thanks again for excellent follow ups.
:-)
You're welcome! :)
