Production: Creating the Menu

Creating the menu proved to be a difficult challenge as I had never done it before on WordPress and needed the help of various forums.

I used this link to create my custom menu: http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/#creating-a-custom-menu

To create the menu, I did the following steps:


  1. Click on "Appearance" and then "Menus" on the left hand side of the dashboard.
  2. Click on "create a new menu" and then name the menu. I named mine "My Menu 2". 
  3. I then scrolled down to "Menu Settings" and chose to have the menu as the "Top Primary Menu".
  4. I then searched for the pages I had created earlier and clicked on "Add to menu" so that they would become tabs on the menu.
  5. I then re-ordered the pages to appear on the menu as I wanted them and then clicked on "Save menu".
  6. I clicked on "Visit site" to see the menu displayed and voila! 
The finished menu:
