 * I have used wordpress many times before, so I know how to use it. I have installed
   a theme that doesn’t show the pages in the top navigation bar right.
 * I have deleted all normal pages, and made ONE page, which is called ‘The Pupils’
   Committee’. The page doesn’t show up anywhere, and there are just those 3 standers
   pages, I can’t find anywhere :S
 * The blog is here:
    [http://eccentric.wtf.la](http://eccentric.wtf.la) Theme is
   called PressRow and can be downloaded here: [http://www.findcreditcards.org/pressrow/](http://www.findcreditcards.org/pressrow/)
 * I know I can delete the pages in the navigation bar by editing the header.php,
   but it’s not how wordpress is suppose to work! I’m the webmaster, and not the
   one who creates the posts and pages, so I can’t edit the file(s) each time he
   wants to add something.

 * In header.php
 *     ```
       <div id="nav">
       <ul>
       <li><a class="blog" href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>">blog</a></li>
       <?php wp_list_pages(); ?>
       </ul>
       </div>
       ```

 * Thank you very much.
 * I’ve done what you told me, and take a look at it now. It says ‘pages’ above ‘
   The Pupils’ Committee’. How do I remove it?
 * And when I click on it, the header changes back to how it looked like at the 
   beginning.
 * I really appreciate your help.
 * IMPORTANT EDIT!!!:
    I have made a site where you can test [http://eccentric.wtf.la/testing/](http://eccentric.wtf.la/testing/)(

 * my bad, it should be
    <?php wp_list_pages(‘title_li=’); ?> need to add argument
   inside parenthesis to take away “Pages” default heading. that’s it.
 * Please change username and password to your test application. Cheers.

 * Thanks once again!
 * Try clicking on one of the test links on the nav bar. The header changes back
   again, which it’s not suppose to do

 * That’s what’s happening too in your second install [http://eccentric.wtf.la/testing/](http://eccentric.wtf.la/testing/)
   as well.
    Ok, go to Settings > Permalinks and set to pretty permalinks and update
   your main installation in root. Did you delete the About and Archive pages in
   the main installation or did you keep them? Do you need to keep the second WP
   install in /testing/ ? If not, please delete.

 * Why do you want me to delete the testing blog? It’s not connected with the real
   blog at all. I just made it so you can test
 * I have tried to delete About and Archive pages, but it gives me some errors. 
   You can see the errors by clicking on one of the testing pages
 * And does the permalinks have anything to do with this case?

 * Yes, if you have two WP installs (say one in root and one in folder) permalinks
   should be set to default otherwise what’s happening with your URL’s will continue
   to happen.

 * I have deleted the whole testing folder, and the permalinks are the to default.
   I still have the same problem

 * Do you wp-cache or super-cache? Clear cache and your browser cookies. All’s good
   now with default permalinks.
    How about trying pretty permalinks now? Just a 
   thought 🙂

 * I use wp-cache, but it’s disabled.
 * Now it’s much better, but the page in the navigation bar isn’t selected with 
   the black fill when you’re on that page. (like the latest news page)
 * Is it possible to fix?
 * And thank you very much for your support.

 * Look in your css file for
    #nav li a:hover { … }
 * add
    #nav li a:hover, **#nav li a.current_page_item** { … }
 * This way the current selected item will be black as well .
