How do I remove the blue background and extra menu items – newbie

[twofrogs]

I uploaded the Multi-level Navigation Plugin in my WordPress site http:/www.goodbyelyme.com/.

How do I remove the blue bar and the extra menu items that appeared?

thanks,

Greg

I think you may have missed instructions 3 and 4:

Thanks for the tip, it’s a little better after adding that. Can I get rid of the background color all together?

It’s also appended these menu items that I do not want:

Home  Categories  Archives  Links

Also, the hover color doesn’t fall behind the text. it’s slightly above it. What can I do to get this to fall behind the text?

thanks,

Greg

I am also having trouble with this.  I’ve used the CSS generator to configure a nav menu that I really like…but where is the CSS that is supposed to be generated?  Is it supposed to appear on the page for me to copy?  Is it supposed to automatically go to my style.css somehow?  Where is the code??

Oops…I figured it out.  I was customizing the menu using the TEMPLATE generator which was off to the left of every page.  When I turned that off, I was able to see the CSS generator I am supposed to use for the menu, and get the code I needed.

Yes, by following the instructions I posted a link to earlier. I took a look at your site and can’t see any blue background so I’m guessing you have fixed this now anyway.

This is also covered in the instructions. If you follow them this should all become clear.

You have some invalid code in your pages. I’m guessing it looks something like this in the theme:
[code:1ofn6bbu] <div id="nav">
<ul>

<!– <?php wp_list_pages(); ?> –>
<?php if (function_exists(‘pixopoint_menu’)) {pixopoint_menu();} ?>
</ul>
</div> [/code:1ofn6bbu]

You could try changing to this:
[code:1ofn6bbu]<?php if (function_exists(‘pixopoint_menu’)) {pixopoint_menu();} ?>
[/code:1ofn6bbu]
The DIV tag is probably styling the menu (which is bad, since the plugin isn’t doing it) and the UL tag creates invalid code since it doesn’t contain a list item.

Sorry about the confusion with the template generator. It is a little confusing if you are using both of them at the same time. I’m working on a new system which will avoid that confusion, things going to plan (they rarely do) it should be ready in a few months.

Thanks, that fixed all the problems!
