I have resolved the issue by binning the problem page. I’d rather not leave the link to the site here as the title and scope of that page is set to change shortly. Thanks A

In reply to: Weird prob creating page that is not part of nav menuIt seems like it’s an anomoly I created a couple more pages that aren’t part of my main nav and they seem to be behaving as I’d expect. I have checked the settings and all the three pages that linked from my sidebar and they are all set up the same. It’s just the latest news page that seems to be doing this odd thing. I’m wondering whether it’s something to do with the page id it has been handed but it seems unique. Either way I think I will delete the problem page and use one of the test pages instead. If that works after I’ve renamed the new page to’latest news’ I’ll delete this thread. Thanks.

In reply to: How to combine 15 css/javascript into a single filehttpfox will show you any files that are taking a long time to load. Might be worth a look.

In reply to: How to combine 15 css/javascript into a single fileThat’s a lot! If this is your js hosted on a CDN then could you use a minifying tool? Adding them in to one file should be just a case of copying and pasting or am I missing the point?

In reply to: changing color of hover on navigation menuAh Ok. I see your hovers now. I think it’s a cascading thing. You have more than one css selector setting hover sate styling I think. They have different heirachy depending on where you set them. The hover that is being applied is at line 609 in style.css try editing that style if you can

In reply to: How to combine 15 css/javascript into a single fileI would think that .js and .css are different mime types and would not work as a single file. You could make all the js one file. However if this is to make your site run faster you are actually better leaving them as separate files that load from different servers as these will run concurrently / take place at the same time. Say 4 files at 1k from different server/hosts should load quicker than a 3k file. This is theoretical of course it would need the host servers to serve at exactly the same speed.
Have you tried something like httpfox for firefox it will show you a report with load times for every file?
Was yslow pointing out that 15 is alot. Do you need all those js librarys? It’s easy to end up with a couple of links to different versions of the same thing might be worth a look?

In reply to: changing color of hover on navigation menuHi there,
Good work with your css to date. to do hovers in your css you could add
a:hover{color:orange}
that will change the hover colour of all text links on your page. So every a tag or link.
You’ll want to have different styles for different links on your site of course so you will need (I used firebug to get your navigations ID)
#menu-navigation-bar a:hover{color:red}
where ‘#’ refers to an element with an ID of menu-navigation-bar then the adding the a applies to all links inside menu-navigation-bar the :hover sets the hover state to make the color of the text red
or
#menu-navigation-bar a:hover{color:#888}
Hope that’s what you’re after

In reply to: nav menu export problem – possible help registering in headerYes I created the menus in wordpress admin tool ie mine.com/wp-admin. I created a menu using the admin tool and on the dev site (Where it is all working OK) also states
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 I have just registered a menu in functions.php using the name my original menu for eg myMenuName:
if ( function_exists( ‘register_nav_menu’ ) ) {
register_nav_menu( ‘myMenuName’, ‘My menu name’ );I’m calling it in my header.php:
<?php wp_nav_menu(); ?>
And I can now configure ‘Theme locations’ on the left of Admin>appearances>menus using myMenuName (There also seems to be a test menu now)
However my menu navigation on the site still shows in a random order. Is it that this menu just reflect all the pages available and not using anything set up in Admin>appearances>menus
Sorry for the long post
