I started creating drop down menus for my site and one created under a different menu name which was the title of my site not sure what happened but then I deleted and created
I guess when I was trying to learn how to work the menu somehow I named a new menu as my site. Which put my menus on it and it worked but realized it wasnt under the top neavigation menu. I asked this morning in chat and understood that it was supposed to be under top navigation and not a new menu name. So I deleted the new menu name and put the new ones under top navigation and now I cant get them on my site and I have refreshed and saved
but you should be able to put any of your menus in the places allowed on your site.
if you goto menus, and go to the location tab you can select the location and the menu to show.
i tend to use customize to see the changes before commiting to the live site - you get the same options of menu and location under customize menus.
that's brilliant Amy.
i knew you could do it.
just a little bit of support, but you did the work and got it fixed.
just hop over to canva and create a simple image 512x512 pixels...make it high contrast colors if you can and that fits with your site.
then go into customize => site identity an upload the image to your site and you should see it appear at the top, helping create your brand.
so take what you use for your site header and facebook and other socila media and if ther are common things then that becomes your icon.
remember you can always change it.
if you go into customize - menus do you see the right menu on the screen.
if you do then clear the cache in your browser.
or press shift and f5 to bypass the cache to refresh your screen.
good luck

Hi Amy,
I think your questions have been answered.
On a personal note, you are a very inspiring person and I admire you stopping, to take the time to ask questions to make your site awesome.
I know I have not been much of a help to you. For that I apologize. Seems when I read your questions there are several answers to help you along your WA journey.
I hope your beagle is feeling better.
My best wishes,
Michael
Thank you for that sweet comment. I do get frustrated but I am determined to make it a success. You have been very helpful in just this way. At least you answered and are helping me keep motivated. and what advice you give is extremely helpful. I admit lately I was getting frustrated because when I was on there have been a couple times where my questions never did get an answer and I didn't know where to go so I try to regroup and keep asking.
Thanks for everything!! You have helped.
Amy
Hi Amy,
I totally relate to the frustration factor.
My gosh if you do not get any responses, please feel to PM me.
WA is all about helping each other, most of the time I am here.
You are doing all the right things Amy.
You will achieve what you have set out to do.
Every rose has it's thorns. There are a lot less thorns here.
Your friend,

I am working on putting in drop down menus but was wondering do I put my posts that I have written under these menus and will that leave them on the home page as well?
I put them under drop-down menus
the home page has the
about me page under it ane the
privacy page
Hello, you can nest pages and posts in your menus manually. I do it on one of my sites and then I just have categories listed on the other that, when selected take the visitor to a blog roll page showing only posts in that category.
Content under drop down menus?

I am working on putting in categories for my post. How do I determine what I should name them? I have watched videos on them but still struggling with what to name them.

It should depend on your Niche and what its about and the products within that niche.
Simple example being Weight Loss -
diet plans
vitamin supplements
exercise
clothes
footwear
foods
male/female
You get the idea Amy
Thinking cap on and think about what you are going to write articles about and they will become your Categories.
Enjoy your Wednesday.
