I apologize for not realizing my post was “put into the queue for review and moderation”, and submitting this post multiple times and on multiple forums. I appreciate any help that folks can give me on this Make It A Drop Down issue. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [cannot post in WP forum](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cannot-post-in-wp-forum/) * Thread Starter [Crystal Snowyn](https://wordpress.org/support/users/snowyn/) * (@snowyn) * [10 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cannot-post-in-wp-forum/#post-7156538) * Oh!! Thank you so much for this clarification!! * I bet it was due to having a link in the post (to the site where I am having the problem). Hopefully I’m not the only one who has done multiple postings of the same post due to this confusion. () * BTW: Suggestion: It would have been a Huge Help towards understanding what was happening if there had been a message on the screen (where the post would otherwise have appeared) saying something like: “Your post has been received and is in the queue for review and moderation.” * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [cannot post in WP forum](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cannot-post-in-wp-forum/) * Thread Starter [Crystal Snowyn](https://wordpress.org/support/users/snowyn/) * (@snowyn) * [10 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cannot-post-in-wp-forum/#post-7156405) * I tried to post my main question again on the Hack forum, since it is about getting a custom post type into a drop down menu in a custom main navigation menu. I get a “slow down, you move too fast” screen. I am really really really confused. Why can’t I post my question? * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [cannot post in WP forum](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cannot-post-in-wp-forum/) * Thread Starter [Crystal Snowyn](https://wordpress.org/support/users/snowyn/) * (@snowyn) * [10 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cannot-post-in-wp-forum/#post-7156403) * Okay, this post showed up. I will try again. Maybe the screening function did not like my tags???? * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [search returns 404 error](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/search-returns-404-error/) * Thread Starter [Crystal Snowyn](https://wordpress.org/support/users/snowyn/) * (@snowyn) * [11 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/search-returns-404-error/#post-5543082) * Okay, for anyone who is having this same problem: I removed searchform.php from the theme, and now the search is working. However, I DO need to change the formatting of the search box (it’s too wide for where it is supposed to fit, also too low for its special place on my new home page). So I will investigate on the CODEX for doing that properly. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [search returns 404 error](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/search-returns-404-error/) * Thread Starter [Crystal Snowyn](https://wordpress.org/support/users/snowyn/) * (@snowyn) * [11 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/search-returns-404-error/#post-5543026) * Here is another clue. The URL in the 404 address window is: * ``` http://www.wholehealtheducation.com/wyns-test-new-template-page/%3Cbr%20/%3E%3Cb%3ENotice%3C/b%3E:%20%20get_bloginfo%20was%20called%20with%20an%20argument%20that%20is%20%3Cstrong%3Edeprecated%3C/strong%3E%20since%20version%202.2!%20The%20%3Ccode%3Ehome%3C/code%3E%20option%20is%20deprecated%20for%20the%20family%20of%20%3Ccode%3Ebloginfo%3C/code%3E%20functions.%20Use%20the%20%3Ccode%3Eurl%3C/code%3E%20option%20instead.%20in%20%3Cb%3E/home1/wholehe5/public_html/wholehealtheducation-com/site/wp-includes/functions.php%3C/b%3E%20on%20line%20%3Cb%3E3006%3C/b%3E%3Cbr%20/%3Ehttp:/www.wholehealtheducation.com/?s=health&submit=Go ``` * which looks to me like some sort of code problem. It seems to be objecting to get_bloginfo ??? Is that correct? * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [search returns 404 error](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/search-returns-404-error/) * Thread Starter [Crystal Snowyn](https://wordpress.org/support/users/snowyn/) * (@snowyn) * [11 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/search-returns-404-error/#post-5543019) * Sure. Here is the searchform.php file from the (custom) theme (that I did not write): * ```
``` * And here is the search.php file: * ```

Search Results

Sorry, unable to find the requested document.

``` * I also need for it to search pages, as well as posts. That’s one reason I was interested in using the Search Everything plugin. * Thanks!! * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [WP 4.0 upgrade displays wrong menu](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wp-40-upgrade-displays-wrong-menu/) * Thread Starter [Crystal Snowyn](https://wordpress.org/support/users/snowyn/) * (@snowyn) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wp-40-upgrade-displays-wrong-menu/#post-5320732) * Fixed it! I went to the codex page on navigation menus: [http://codex.wordpress.org/Navigation_Menus](http://codex.wordpress.org/Navigation_Menus) and used the following code in my theme’s functions.php file: * ``` function register_my_menus() { register_nav_menus( array( 'main-menu' => __( 'Main Nav Menu' ), 'extra-menu' => __( 'Extra Menu' ) ) ); } add_action( 'init', 'register_my_menus' ); ``` * (Turns out this function was already in my functions.php file; I customized it for my purposes.) * Then I put this code into my header.php file: ` 'main-menu' ) ); ?>` * And then logged into my WordPress site, went to `Appearance > Menus > Manage Locations` and specified which of my custom menus to use as my `Main Nav Menu`. * Then went back to my site and voila! All was again well. Anyway, I see lots of folks are having menu issues with WP 4.0, so I’m putting here the solution that fixed my problem for me. YAY! * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [WP 4.0 Broke Main Menu](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wp-40-broke-main-menu/) * [Crystal Snowyn](https://wordpress.org/support/users/snowyn/) * (@snowyn) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wp-40-broke-main-menu/page/3/#post-5258171) * I am having a similar/related problem, partially fixed, will continue investigating. Website is: [http://WriteYourBestsellerBook.com/](http://WriteYourBestsellerBook.com/) When I upgraded to WP 4.0, only the “top” level of the menu appeared. All the dropdowns were gone. My theme is custom, done by me. No cache plugins or menu plugins. Following some earlier advice in this thread, I changed `` in my header.php file to: ` ' topMenu') ); ?>` Now, the entire set of dropdown links IS displayed, but the dropdown’s parent/child structure is broken. In other words, every link is being displayed inline instead of block and dropping down. I’m guessing this is a CSS problem, and I will probably wind up tearing my hair out to fix it. (Yes, I know a lot of CSS, but formatting drop-downs has never been my strong point.) I find it EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING to have something that works fine in WordPress Version. Number suddenly be BROKEN in Version.Number+1, or Version+1.0. I REALLY WISH that the folks who do the WordPress upgrades would stop making “improvements” that break people’s themes. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Visual editor malfunctions after upgrade to 3.9.1](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/visual-editor-malfunctions-after-upgrade-to-391/) * Thread Starter [Crystal Snowyn](https://wordpress.org/support/users/snowyn/) * (@snowyn) * [12 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/visual-editor-malfunctions-after-upgrade-to-391/#post-5138635) * Hi Webbrewers! Thank you so much for finding this! I did solve the problem by downgrading to version 3.8.3. If it happens again, I will try this, as it seems quite plausible as the solution. And for now, I will mark this topic as resolved. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Subscribe2 - Form, Email Subscribers & Newsletters] Email confirmation link goes to Error 404](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/email-confirmation-link-goes-to-error-404/) * Thread Starter [Crystal Snowyn](https://wordpress.org/support/users/snowyn/) * (@snowyn) * [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/email-confirmation-link-goes-to-error-404/#post-3853819) * [@mattyrob](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mattyrob/), * I can try this when I get back from New York. My father is dying; I will be away for … probably 7-10 days. * I do have a thought. I’m wondering if I downloaded the correct “thingie”. I noticed there is both a widget and a plugin. I might have gotten the wrong one. * And … from my client trying the subscribe process on another site using your plugin, she observed that the behavior there is: when email subscribe is clicked, one is taken to the home page. Then when clicking on the email confirm, one is taken to … whatever the “thank you” page is. * On our site, when one clicks on the subscribe button, one is taken to the Subscribe2 specified “thank you” page instead of the home page. * We don’t know which page the other site specified as the Subscribe2 page. * I’ll get back in touch when I return. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Subscribe2 - Form, Email Subscribers & Newsletters] Email confirmation link goes to Error 404](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/email-confirmation-link-goes-to-error-404/) * Thread Starter [Crystal Snowyn](https://wordpress.org/support/users/snowyn/) * (@snowyn) * [13 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/email-confirmation-link-goes-to-error-404/#post-3853760) * [@mattyrob](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mattyrob/), * Alas, I still get page not found with the default permalinks.

(Well, source was /about with no slash on the end, since that was how I had them in the first place.) Apparently, whatever was causing the 404s in the first place is also interfering with the action of this plugin.

I still get the 404s on those pages. Oh well.
