check that your menu is set up correctly at new site
dashboard – appearance – menus
not sure about videos – how are you inserting them?
Okay, I’m thinking there might be a couple things going on… as I’m guessing here as I don’t know the theme
As far as the video, check the the tutorials and make sure that when it’s installed as a self-hosted site, that you don’t need to install a plugin to make the video part active again.
The menus, first check on the “menu” feature and see if your theme works with menus. If so, you will probably need to set them up again.
Menus was the first thing I checked, thing is. On the free version I have no menus setup and it just works. On my hosted version when I click menus it says The current theme does not natively support menus, but you can use the “Custom Menu” widget to add any menus you create here to the theme’s sidebar. SO my question then is why would the theme have menus that worked on free version but not work in my hosted version??
That is weird… where they set up this way by using the page attributes on each individual page. Or does the theme have any option to show or not show dropdown pages.
Yeah I had set them up using the page attributes on each individual page. The theme doesn’t have any option to show/not show dropdown
So after the transfer, did the page attributes keep their values?
Yeah they kept their values. Its really odd for why it wouldnt work.
Weird. Looking at your old site, are these posts and not pages?
They are pages. What even more weird is if I try to delete a page and recreate it still wont work. I created a new page, titled test, and then created a page underneath its structure test drop down, and it wont appear. so strange
Okay, this was really bugging me. So I installed this theme on a sandbox site I have, tried to create sub-navigation and it didn’t work.
So then I go into WordPress.com, add it, and it supports the menu feature.
Looks as if the theme is completely different when on .com and when self-hosted.
I would suggest trying to look into the theme more and see what the heck is going on.
Well im glad that I’m not the only one having the problem. Still wondering what the heck it could be.
