   I’ve just started a new blog for my website, and I’m having trouble with a couple of the pages.

   here is the site: http://nathanlutherdesigns.com/dev/

   I am trying to remove the "Home" page as it appears to be a ghost page, It comes up in the links at the top of the page, but doesn’t appear in the pages section. I would like to know how I could remove this page, so I can replace it with a home page I can actually edit.

   Secondly there was another link at the top called "Uncategorized" This section I’ve renamed to web design, but once again I want to remove his section completely, so that only the blog page links to the blog sections. How do I go about doing this?

   Thanks for your time, and look forward to hearing from you all soon.

   Thanks

   to get rid of that home link, usually it's in with your menu coding. So most likely header.php

   You'll see the main menu coding which will used wp_list_pages, above that you should have some sort of line like:
   <li><a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>">Home</a></li>
   that can be deleted

   The Uncategorized/Web Design is a category. Your menu must be set up to display pages and categories. Are there any options for turning off categories? Otherwise you'll have to either delete the line of code referring to wp_list_categories if you want no categories in teh menu or exclude that specific category if you want some categories up there.

   Hi Thanks for your speedy reply- I've look at the makers website:

   http://thethemefoundry.com/titan/

   And it appears that you have to go pro to make the changes I want, like adding images to the header- would you recommend going pro, or editing by hand?

   Thanks

   up to you really....

   I'm guessing going pro would allow you to just pop in header images with no fuss, through a menu in your admin area, no code. If its easy you are after, that may be the way to go.

   Otherwise, make sure you have a backup of your theme first, before messing with anything....then have at it!

   Personally, I had no web experience when I started WP, but I couldn't justify paying anyone for something I knew I could figure out. I hacked away at themes, wrecked many themes, broke my WP install many times. But I always had backups...... between the forums and google, I figured out anything I needed.

   So I'd say, priorities. Do ya prefer easy and fast, or do you wanna take a stab at it?
