 * Hi,
 * In my header navigation I have two sub-menus under “Text” and “Works”. However,“
   Text” and “Works” are clickable links that take the user to a blank page. How
   can I deactivate them?
 * In WP-Admin, I can’t see the URL box within the menu editor and I can’t see any
   reference to my links in Header.php neither. Do I need to install a plugin?
 * Here is a link to my site, so you can see what I am referring to:

 * Best,
    David

 * Aah. Solved it! Surprisingly easy. If anyone has had the same problem, here is
   how to fix it:
 * In Dashboard (WP-Admin) select Menus from Appearance drop-down. A new page will
   open. On the left you will see Custom Links. I tried to drag this to the right-
   hand side, but it didn’t work. Then I discovered you need to put the “#” mark
   in URL text field and write the menu item in Label. In my case, this was Text.
   Then I could drag this to the right and it essentially creates a new menu called
   Text. I then drag my two sub-menu items (About and CV) to this new “Text” and
   delete the previous “Text”. You now have the option to select the arrow next 
   to Text” and customise this link.
 * Hope this makes sense.
