So you want to organize your menu. You have come to the right spot. Getting the menu you want is just a few short steps away.

For this tutorial we are going to start out with a menu that looks like this:

We have a few different pages added, but as you can see they aren't in any sort of order.

NOTE: I appoligize, the part where you add pages to your menu I had difficulty adding a picture for some reason. I am working on the solution and will get it added as soon as I figure out what is wrong. I did however explain in text how to accomplish that task, you just don't have a visual to go along with it. Again I am sorry.

Hi Suzanne,

In WordPress Menus are created and manipulated in the Appearence->Menu option in your WordPress Admin Area Right hand menus.

You can add and remove menu items there.

At the top you choose the menu you want to edit. Depending on your theme you may have more than one menu. Some themes have both navigation and footer menus.

Once the menu is selected you will see the menu structure.

Next to the Menu name is a little arrow that allows you to open the options for that menu item.

In this area you can change the Navigation Label (the name) also there is a remove link at the bottom.

In the left hand pane you can Add new menu items. You can choose from Pages, Posts, or create custom menu items that point to a URL.

Hope this helps,
- Glen B
