I have to many post titles at the top of my page, I need to combine them some way. How do I do this?
Hi Harry i just did this and still had the plug in installed. You may be able to do this without the plug in but I haven't tried that.
You go into your editor on your dashboard and oull up the post you want to make a page. On the right just above the update box you will see post type edit. Click that and you can make that a page. Don't forget to update.
Then go to appearance on the left side and click on menu. On the left
you will see add rot menu. Put a check in the box of your new page and click set or save. Your page will then appear in a box with the rest of your pages and you can drag it to where you want it. You can make it a main page or sub page. I hope this helps.

You can change a post to a page by using a plug in called post type switcher by John James jacoby. You can install and do the conversions and then delete the plug in.
You can set the pages as sub pages by going into appearance and menu. I will go check it out a give you a more detailed account.

I need to know how to use sub-pages?

It looks like you've already combined them pretty well! Did you fix this problem, or are you still trying to get your menu to look different?

I just finished a page and it needs to go under one of the other pages, how do I get it there?
Go to appearance, menus, add the new page to your menu. Then under menu structure drag the new page under the page you want it to be under but indent it and then save menu. Then it will be in a drop down on your menu. Hope this helps. I just had to do that for my sight and that was the way that worked for me.
You can't place pages under other pages. Pages are separate and can be placed in menus and sidebars.
It's only post that are displayed in a hierarchy - one after the other.
So you can create a menu tab and create a dropdown menu and within that drop down have you pages.
I did a training video about menus if you need to watch it.

Part of the time I put a picture on my website and when I go back days later there is just outline of a square box where the picture was. What am I not doing or am doing wrong.
If you are copying pictures from other places, the pictures might be deleted, leaving you with a broken link. You need to upload the images to your own site. https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/training/how-to-find-add-images-to-your-website
If that's what you're doing, the problem is that your website no longer knows where to find that image. WHY that is happening is I don't know. What's a URL where this happened and I can take a look to investigate.
Hi Nathaniell, I replaced all of the pictures yesterday, will have to see if they stay this time. Thanks for the reply and I will contact you before I do anything if it does it again. Probably some little something I am not getting right. Thanks for checking on it for me. Harry
Picture can behave in a funny way sometimes. Is it just within your editor or do you see the same thing when you actually visit your site?
It happened on both the editor and the site, I have redone them now. Will see what happens this time, I may be contacting you if this happens again. Thanks for the response.
I have the exact same problem... and it seems you were a good solution haha, any insight? thanks and sorry for the 4 month repost...
