 * Hi Guido,
 * I am currently staging a page for my local dog club. I am very happy with the
   theme so far. But I would like to get rid of the black boxes in the nav menu 
   on the left.
    Finally I would like to replace these boxes with a small picture
   of a paw.
 * After spending a lot of time on google how to deactivate these boxes and not 
   finding anything helpful, I don’t know what to do anymore.
 * Please tell me if it is possible and if so how.
 * Thank you in advance

 * Hi Harri,
 * Guess you mean the so called list-stye of the menu in your sidebar?
 * Try this at the Extra CSS page of the Customizer in your dashbaord:
 *     ```
       #sidebar .menu {list-style:none;}
       #sidebar .sub-menu {list-style:none;}
       ```

 * Yes! Awesome! Thank you very much!
 * Ah, and if it’s not asked to much, could’t you tell me if it is possible to have
   the sub-menu entrys as dropdown from the main entrys? Again google hasen’t been
   very helpful -_-

 * Hi,
 * I notice you’ve removed the sidebar from the site. So I guess your last question
   is not relevant anymore.

 * Hi,
 * yes I changed over to the menu in the top. It was easier after all.
    Thank you!
