 * I created a subpage and am trying to link it to the parent page. This is the 
   code (sorry don’t know the proper term) I used to link to the parent page.
 * < li > < a href = “index.php?page_id=3”>Photos< / a>
    How would I link the subpage?

 * Your URL is wrong. It goes to the WP site. Is that what you meant to do?

 * Nope. I added spaces so it can be read properly.

 * You can use the same method: subpages have unique page_id numbers as Pages.

 * It’s possible I’m asking for something that doesn’t exist. I wanted all my parent
   pages listed in a horizonatal menu across the header, and have the subpages only
   appear when you click or hover over the parent page. Is that possible?

 * Use backticks to for code:
 * `<li><a href="index.php?page_id=3">Photos</a>`
 * Anyway, yes, that’s possible, but easiest to hard code. While it could be done
   via `wp_list_pages` and some PHP, it’d be a pain.
