Andreas 4.0 — removing “about” link on nav??
-
I have been racking my brain trying to figure out how to delete the link on my nav bar that read’s “About”, is this possible?
I just don’t see the need to have this page displayed on my right nav about my widgets AND as a link on my top nav, especially because when someone clicks it, it displays right besides itself.
I’ve tried sub nesting it on another page but it disappears altogether …
HELP Pleasssse >_<

yes but whatever page i put “about” as a slug will still appear on the top nav as well. I just don’t want this link on the top nav..
-
But that’s the point: the theme is set to display in the sidebar the contents of whatever page has the URL http://roachii.wordpress.com/about/ , no matter what the page title. I didn’t say change the title, I said change the slug – for instance make it http://roachii.wordpress.com/about-me/ .

Or have I misunderstood? I thought you want to get rid of the About that shows up on top of your widgets, spanning the width of both sidebars.
-
Ah yes, I did misunderstand: you meant the tab in the header image area (grey tabs on grey bg didn’t help)!
Well, the way to hide the header tab is turn it into a child page, as you already know. And as you said, doing that will eliminate its contents from the sidebar. To me that’s good, precisely because “when someone clicks it, it displays right besides itself”.
If what you don’t want is the redundancy between the header tabs and the pages widget, remove the pages widget.

sorry i was MIA for awhile
I don’t mind it being on the pages widget. i just dont want it on the header because once it’s clicked on, the problem is having it display side by side eachother. i like having it on the sidebar. but only on the sidebar.
making it a “child page” won’t allow it to display on the sidebar tho.
its silly that this theme is made this way. I guess im stuck with it like that.
i appreciate your help tho!! thanks -
OOOOOOR how about this..
is it possible to make one widget span across the bottom two columns of widgets??
there isn’t, is there… dang it…! >_<

“i like having it on the sidebar. but only on the sidebar.”
Then delete the page, and put the info in a text widget.
One way to make that widget span both columns: put it in Sidebar 1, write content this way:
<div style="width:200%;"> CONTENT_HERE </div> -
ahhh close but not quite. Spanning it across just makes the text overlap on the second column…
-
Yes of course it does. I was hoping to see you add some actual content first, instead of only running tests, so I could then suggest something appropriate. Failing that, you can put the exact same content in a text widget top position Sidebar 2, enclosing it in this code:
<div style="width:200%;margin-left:-109%;visibility:hidden;"> CONTENT_HERE </div> -
i know, i know, I just think about what i have to work with before I get to work. But I’m adding stuff now.
so THANKS, the tweeks will get the job done!! it works wonderfully [:
