Removing the menu is easy. The proper way to do it is more difficult but better in the long run and something worth learning now so you can have the control you want later.
Create a child theme. -Lots of information and tutorials on the web.
Copy your header.php file into your child theme folder.
Find the menu <nav> code and either delete or comment it out <!– –>
Save and open your site. It will be gone.
Thanks for the help.
I’ve made a child theme, but I don’t seem to have a ‘folder’. In the left hand bar theres an option ‘child theme’ which asks me to make a child, which I’ve done. I’ve then gone to the ‘Themes’ section and found ‘Itek-child’ that I’ve made. In this section, there’s another left hand menu bar with a few options, none of which give me a lot of control over removing the top menu bar. There’s no where I can enter a file or any code. Do you know where I can find it?
I’m also finding in this child theme that it publishes changes immediatly, whereas I wanted to play with the layout more without publishing. Is this working correctly?
Thanks
There won’t be an option to remove the menu bar – you’ll need to remove the code manually as advised by @dinghyblonde.

The best way to test out a theme is either work with it locally or you can leave it deactivated and use the Preview button on the Themes page – this will allow you to preview and make some changes to see how they look via the customizer without effecting the front end.
