wordpress question

[sseeton]

does anyone know how i can create another link on my menu in my blog? i want it to say 'clients' and have a drop down menu where they can click on different pages for pricing, session info, client questionnaire, etc. but i can't figure out how the heck to do this.

help someone! please!

Are you using a Wordpress "theme" for your site? If so, check the documentation, if there is any. Many themes would present a user interface for modifying the menu. Have you checked the admin areas of your site?

If that is no help, see below:

From looking at the source code, I see that the menu is a series of nested unordered lists, with list items under those. (These are created using HTML ul and li tags.).

I'm guessing that there is some code somewhere that generates the menu for each page. This code most likely relies on configuration information. The configuration information determines the layout of the menu, and specifies links for each menu option. Depending on your setup, this could be stored in the Wordpress database, in in a file in your site.

<li><a href="http://yoursite.com/?page_id=#" title="Clients">Clients</a></li>

try using this if you find the code. I suggest going into the theme editor and go to the header.php page and insert the following piece of code in the appropriate area. it could work depending on the coding of your theme. just make sure you change the domain to your site and get the page id number and change the #

some themes have a page listing with drop down menus. If this is the case you can create a page called "Clients", then create your additional pages with their info, and set the "clients" page as the parent page.

Then when you look at your blog, you should have a page link that says "Clients" and when you mouse over it, the other menu items will drop down.

This is recommended if you are not into HTML.

You can also see an example at my website, Damon Pena's Photography at the top of the page under Galleries

if you get the thesis wordpress theme it is super easy to create new pages and for those pages to have sub pages with drop down menus like your describing. unfortunately the theme cost some money but the ease of use for a newbie web designer will make it well worth it to you in my opinion

if you can afford to pay for a theme there are other themes that have page and subpage options on them as well

thanks guys! i totally forgot to update yall. it was a super easy solution. all i had to do was create a new page within the wp admin, then add more pages and assign them as sub-pages to the parent page. sorry...i'm not too familiar with all the terminology or lingo. but that's the gist of it. lol
