 * Hey there,
 * I’m new to WordPress and am managing the social media for Red Rock Bible Camp(
   redrockbiblecamp.com) to get some experience in that area of communications.
 * With these duties I’m also managing their website, and there are many things 
   that I’m looking to change. The biggest problem I am having right now has to 
   do with broken links on the website. In the top menu they have a few tabs set
   up, and some of them have drop down menus. The two tabs with drop down menus 
   have broken link signs next to them, and from doing some investigating I noticed
   that they used to be pictures of arrows pointing down, indicating that there 
   is a drop down menu to that tab. For whatever reason, the link to that arrow 
   is dead, and I’m just looking to delete the arrows all together because I don’t
   think they are necessary, and I really don’t want that terrible looking broken
   link sign next to the tabs.
 * I’ve been trying for so long now trying to figure out how to delete or at least
   hide these dead links so we don’t have them all over our home page, is there 
   anyone who can show me how to delete these missing arrow pictures?
 * The website again is redrockbiblecamp.com. The broken links are next to the words“
   about us” and “programs” I am very new at this, and coding and stuff seem like
   a foreign language, so dumbing it down for me would be appreciated!
 * Thanks!

 * You should be able to reset any tab in the menu, just go to:
    appearance/menus.
   On the left you can remove any tab and then add it again. This will not delete
   any of your pages, this is just affects the menu.
 * I would remove the two tabs and then add them again.
 * Hope this helps,
    Cheers

 * Thanks for your quick response,
 * I tried doing that just now, but it seems that every time I try to make a drop
   down menu, the broken arrow link appears automatically. So even when I delete
   and add again, the second I want something to appear in the drop down menu it
   just adds the broken link on its own because it thinks that it’s going to look
   like an arrow.
 * I’m wondering if there is a way to stop the site from trying to automatically
   add that arrow. I would still like drop down menus, but I just don’t want the
   broken link to show up when I make them. I don’t even need an arrow.
 * I hope this makes sense. And thank you.

 * There’s a problem with the image src – it’s using a relative url (Site/graphics/
   right.gif). You should only use absolute urls in WordPress.

 * Okay, I’ll make sure I remember that for next time. This was done before I got
   here. But is there a way to remove this image entirely?
 * Or how would I go about replacing it properly?

 * You’d need to start looking in the appropriate template file in the theme – maybe
   header.php

 * I would then try going to your theme options and looking for menu options. It
   should say something like “drop down menus,” or “menu options.”
    You should be
   able to find a different style there without arrows or disable them altogether.
   If you have just a basic theme you will not have these options and will need 
   to edit the “php style-sheet” under “editor.” If you do not know programming 
   I would not edit this page as your site will no longer work after editing it,
   if you jack it up.
 * There are many programmers that you can find to fix that issue for you for $20
   bucks or so on Odesk if you need someone that knows php.
    Just set your price
   when you post a job, never do it by the hour.
