Hi, I have menu items (e.g. Home) with no children. Where I do have a menu item with children (Our Work), I want the parent item to go nowhere (no link). In other words the sole purpose of the parent menu item is to group together the child menu items that link to whatever I want to present. Can I do this and keep my top nav items?

@dara-w: Yes, this can be done. For that, you should use Custom link as parent item with URL # and label with your desired text for menu item (Our Work) and then put the other children menu items under it.
Let me know if any problem.

Hi Mahesh, thanks, I can’t see a custom link option for the parent Page (Our Work) in the top nav menu.

@dara-w: I assume, you have Our work page, and currently your menu item Our Work points to that particular page. But as it is a parent item, you don’t want to link it to any thing right? For that you’ll need to add a custom link. In menu page, you’ll see Custom Menu links, listed along with pages, post, category etc. Click on it then add # in the url field and put a name in the
Link Text field and click on Add to menu button. Remove you current Our Work item from menu and place the new add item in its place then click Save Menu button.
Hope this helps.

Regards,
Mahesh

Hi, OK, I wasn’t using menues, the pages I’ve created form a top nav menu. So now I’m assuming I need to create a primary menu and work from there

[Mahesh]

@dara-w: Oh, if you haven’t created or assigned any menu to the primary menu, it uses page menu by default. I recommend you to create a menu and assign it to primary menu and it will fix your issue.
