HI!
I'm new to wordpress and have just started up my site. I use a theme called Imbalance and have been doing some editing, but now I'm a bit stuck. I'm not at all an expert in CSS and HTML, It's kind of trial and error...
Anyway, I would like to remove the "Archive" menu completely, since I don't need it. I don't want my posts to be shown after date.
I also have a problem with the menu "Publications" wich I originally added myself, but it was supposed to be parented under "About". I have no idea why it ended up there in the menu, so I deleted that page, but it's still there!
Last question :) Is there a way to nename the menu links? Like to make "Home" > "Work" or "Categories" > "Filter" for example.

If you're not familiar with HTML, let alone PHP, it will be difficult for you to customize much of anything beyond the basics.
But as I understand it, most included modules like these live in the themes/yourtheme/ directory...functions.php, header.php, single.php, loop.php, etc etc.

I am a bit familiar with Html and CSS, but I'm not at all an expert... I built my old home page by myself in html and CSS (www.gravityandgrace.se)
I understand I have to go in to the php pages, but I'm unfortunately not sure where to look or what to delete. If you could give me any guidence, that would be great!Many thanks!

This might be it:
Go to the dashboard and look under Appearance > Widgets
On the right is a list of widgets that currently load; look like you can drag widgets in and out of here. Not sure if this helps.

Posted 11 months ago #I have no active widgets. Do you mean that I could add a widget in order to change the top menu?
I managed do delete the links to my social media (Facebook, RSS, Twitter) in the top menu, so I think I should be able to manage to edit the top menu. But there's more to it, so if you have a slightest idea how... I would be happy to hear it :)Thanks!

Try looking in your theme's header.php template file.

Although "Publications won't go away, and it doesn't show in the Heder eather... What culd be wrong. That page actually doesn't exist anymore... -
Is it hardcoded into header.php?

That's not header.php.

There's no hard coded Publications link in there. Are you using a custom menu?

Posted 11 months ago #I'm not sure what a custom menu is, but the menu was there when I opened got strated on the template. And I have managed to remove two other pages visible in the top menu, that was there from start (search and archive), they were spotible in the header.php...

Posted 11 months ago #You were right again! There was a custome menu, and I didn't know it...
I'm very grateful for your advices, many thanks! -
Glad we got that sorted. :-)
