 * i’m using the basis twentyten theme here: [http://bandit4x4.com/wordpress/](http://bandit4x4.com/wordpress/)
 * in the header.php file, the wp_nav_menu code is creating the top nav bar.
 *     ```
       <div id="access" role="navigation">
   
       				<?php wp_nav_menu( array( 'container_class' => 'menu-header', 'theme_location' => 'primary' ) ); ?>
       			</div><!-- #access -->
       ```
   
 * but i need it to exclude the Disclaimer Page, which is the second link in the
   top nav bar. how do i do that?
 * please advise. thanks.

 * Themes that use the wp_nav_menu function properly, such as Twenty Ten, generally
   do not have use of the exclude parameter associated with other menu creating 
   functions such as wp_list_pages or wp_page_menu.
 * Have you tried creating a custom menu to match your existing one and simply not
   use “Disclaimer”?

 * could i just remplace the wp_nav_menu stuff with wp_list_pages?
 * why would this theme not have such a basic function if this is the new wordpress
   default theme?

 * The premise behind the use of wp_nav_menu() and its functionality is to allow
   end-users to create menus exactly how they want them to appear.
 * This leads to the idea of not using an exclude parameter; why would you exclude
   something you can simply choose not to add in the first place.
 * Obviously replacing wp_nav_menu with wp_list_pages is possible as well, it would
   just take some edits to your theme to do. The proper usage of wp_list_pages can
   be found in the codex.

 * so you’re saying i should just create a list using regular HTML and CSS code 
   and not use any sort of PHP generated list???

 * Great! … and taking out the Disclaimer item lets the menu fit much better on 
   your site.

 * I am having a similar problem as I haven’t used this new feature before. However,
   I need to wrap some images in the menu bar to the left of the auto-generated 
   menu. I can’t figure out a way to use this cool feature and get other items that
   are not standard menu links into the same line as the menu without it creating
   a line break.
 * You’ll see I am trying to add an image called facebook.jpg to the left of the
   menu
    —- <img src=”wp-content/themes/HealthyBusiness/images/facebook.jpg”> <?
   php wp_nav_menu( array( ‘container_class’ => ‘menu-header’, ‘theme_location’ 
   => ‘primary’ ) ); ?> —-
 * However,
    this is the HTML that is being generated: ————- <img src=”wp-content/
   themes/HealthyBusiness/images/facebook.jpg”> <div class=”menu-header”><ul id=”
   menu-healthy-business” class=”menu”><li id=”menu-item-464″ class=”menu-item menu-
   item-type-custom current-menu-item current_page_item menu-item-home menu-item-
   464″>[Home](http://www.healthybusinessradio.com/) <li id=”menu-item-458″ class
   =”menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-458″>[About](http://www.healthybusinessradio.com/about)

 * Actually, i can get it to work on the right side, but not the left. Wonder what’s
   up with that?
