   Okay, third try. I have no idea why the topic keeps disappearing after I hit post. Anyway.

   I'm using the Dark Blix theme on my site, and I was having a problem displaying links to page in the header, until I came across this post. When I replaced the following code I had in header.php:

   <li<?php if (is_home()) echo " class=\"selected\""; ?>>">Home
   <?php
   $pages = BX_get_pages();
   if ($pages) {
   foreach ($pages as $page) {
   $page_id = $page->ID;
   $page_title = $page->post_title;
   $page_name = $page->post_name;
   if ($page_name == "archives") {
   (is_page($page_id) || is_archive() || is_search() || is_single())?$selected = ' class="selected"':$selected='';
   echo "<li".$selected.">Archives\n";
   }
   elseif($page_name == "about") {
   (is_page($page_id))?$selected = ' class="selected"':$selected='';
   echo "<li".$selected.">About\n";
   }
   elseif ($page_name == "contact") {
   (is_page($page_id))?$selected = ' class="selected"':$selected='';
   echo "<li".$selected.">Contact\n";
   }
   elseif ($page_name == "about_short") {/*ignore*/}
   elseif ($page_id == "11") {/*ignore*/}
   elseif ($page_id == "12") {/*ignore*/}
   elseif ($page_id == "13") {/*ignore*/}
   elseif ($page_id == "14") {/*ignore*/}
   elseif ($page_id == "182") {/*ignore*/}
   elseif ($page_id == "16") {/*ignore*/}
   elseif ($page_id == "190") {/*ignore*/}
   elseif ($page_id == "193") {/*ignore*/}
   elseif ($page_id == "184") {/*ignore*/}
   elseif ($page_id == "241") {/*ignore*/}
   elseif ($page_id == "194") {/*ignore*/}
   elseif ($page_id == "22") {/*ignore*/}
   elseif ($page_id == "242") {/*ignore*/}
   elseif ($page_id == "243") {/*ignore*/}
   elseif ($page_id == "244") {/*ignore*/}
   elseif ($page_id == "245") {/*ignore*/}
   elseif ($page_id == "246") {/*ignore*/}
   elseif ($page_id == "247") {/*ignore*/}
   elseif ($page_id == "248") {/*ignore*/}
   else {
   (is_page($page_id))?$selected = ' class="selected"':$selected='';
   echo "<li".$selected.">$page_title\n";
   }
   }
   }
   ?>

   With this code from that post:

   <li<?php if (is_home()) echo " class=\"current_page_item\""; ?>>"><?php _e('Home'); ?>
   <?php wp_list_pages("title_li=&depth=-1&sort_column=menu_order")
   ?>

   The navigation links worked fine, except ALL of them were displayed, instead of just a select few. As in, all the pages that I had on ignore before show up on the nagivation bar, which is something I don't want. Is there a way to incorporate the elseif ($page_id == "#") {/*ignore*/} part into the new code and keep those pages on ignore?

   Bumping because it's been a week and I still haven't found a solution to this problem.

   Thanks.

   Take a look at my Blixed theme and see how it is being done using the wp_list_pages().

   The theme I'm using is a bit different from the normal Blix theme. You can take a look at the site here. If I download the theme you linked to, is the layout on my site going to change?

   I dont intend you to use my theme. I just want you to take a look at the code and see how the top navigation is done using wp_list_pages.

   Anyway, let me give a different solution.

   try this.
   use the same code as suggested above.
   change this
   wp_list_pages("title_li=&depth=-1&sort_column=menu_order")
   to
   wp_list_pages("title_li=&depth=-1&sort_column=menu_order&exclude=11,12,13,14,182,16")

   Add as many page ids as you want, separated by commas.
