changing the name of one of the tabs across the top of the site (11 posts)

    Hi

    I am trying to change the name of one of the navigation tabs. IT currently says: Home
    then on the right the tab continues to say:

    Current work ~ white rock lake, tx

    I want to change this/get rid of it. I've modified every <title> form I can find, and even the alt. text when I rollover this text has changed ... but I can't find where to remove/edit the actual text in the nav bar at the top.

    Does anyone know how to do it?

    Thanks!

    :) No, I think Ornani means that we need a link to your site to see what you are talking about. Also, are you using a theme, and if so which one?

    Edit: NM-posted just as you were putting the link back up again.

    Please post the header.php file of the theme that you are using so I can help you.

    Weird.

    That tab is pointing to your top level domain (and thus your home page).

    Can you go to the page editor and then edit the permalink (just below the page title)?

    here is the header.php

    <?php
    /**
    * Handle the opening HTML and actions.
    *
    * @package Thesis
    */
    ?>
    <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
    <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" <?php language_attributes(); ?>>

    <head profile="http://gmpg.org/xfn/11">

    <title><?php thesis_output_title(); ?></title>

    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="<?php bloginfo('html_type'); ?>; charset=<?php bloginfo('charset'); ?>" />
    <?php

    if (is_singular())
    wp_enqueue_script('comment-reply');

    wp_head(); ?>

    </head>

    <body<?php thesis_body_classes(); ?>>

    <?php thesis_hook_before_html(); ?>

    I can't see a permalink on any editor page. I've tried editing every <title> field on the home page in question. I've even successfully changed the alt. text, but I cannot find where that strange snippet of text is coming from to change it...

    My knowledgeable friend told me what to do ... it's rather embarrassingly simple, but for the greater good I thought I'd better post it here :-)

    Under Thesis Options --> Navigation Menu
    +–Select pages to include in nav menu:

    ...and it lists the titles of your tabs! Change it here, Click the Big Button, and it updates.

    Thanks to everyone who tried to help!

    Can you go to the bottom of the "Edit Page" screen for the bad page and see if there is anything in the box

    Page Links to

    Point to this URL:

    It looks like you are point back to the home page.

    If so, delete the link.
