Fixed by author. Although I had set the Primary Menu in WP Admin > Appearance, I forgot to uncheck the “Add top level menus automatically” in the menu options. Now the 2 pages aren’t displaying in the Primary/Top menu.

Thanks for your time.

I’m quite familiar using WP admin to add menus via WP admin > Menus > Theme location (see thread above). My issue is that ALL pages, and not just pages added to the top menu, are displaying on the site, namely the Privacy and Thank you pages.

If you viewed the site, you’ll see those 2 pages are included in the top menu but they don’t appear in the WP admin > Menu > Theme location for the top/primary menu. This is why I wanted to resort to hardcoding the menu in the header.php.

The related issue is that whenever I add this code to exclude the 2 pages from the top menu, I get a list of ALL pages displaying belowing the top menu:

<?php wp_list_pages('exclude=69,75' ); ?>

It’s here.

WP admin interface permits you to specify the order in the WP admin > Appearance > Theme locations but I’m thinking that I also have to specify the order by editing the page details, ie. Pages > Page attributes which I’m working on.

Still, I want to exclude the 2 pages mentioned above.

I upgraded the site to a 2012 child theme.

I’m using this 2012 child theme at this site and I have the latest WordPress update. I want to hardcode the top navigation menu links in header.php because the top nav menu keeps displaying ALL pages on the site whenever I make changes to the custom css. I added the menu pages in WP admin > Menu > Theme locations. I’m only using the top menu and the footer menu. The child theme came with the top menu and the lower menu (below the top menu) but I added the footer menu code from WP Codex.

The code I added is this …

</nav><!-- #site-navigation -->
<?php wp_list_pages('title_li=&depth=1&sort_column=menu_order&exclude=497,10,21,24,15,43,295,500,13'); ?>

…but it’s not registering on the site yet. Is this code correct and I’m I adding it to the right spot in the header.php? The complete header.php code is http://pastebin.com/Le8KQJC3

Umm…

FYI: The help WPyogi offered above was for a commercial theme but the current theme is permanently switched to a 2012 child theme on this site.

I’m having the same issue with the 2 column layout on this 2012 child theme, namely, the lyrics aren’t appearing in 2 columns. I adjusted the font size but the lyrics still aren’t appearing in 2 columns (view page).

Since I’m using a 2012 child theme, do I have to continue using halfwidth div? What css will work with the child theme to align the lyrics into 2 columns?

.main-navigation {
    position: absolute;
    margin-top: 200px;
    width: 100%;
}

The above css works but the logo is still cut off so I’ll remove the height on #header-logo.

It works! God, I love you!
