  The oxygen theme is shown with a black menu box on the left, yet I cannot find a way to recreate it on my blog. Is it a custom design upgrade? There should be a note on the theme info stating this, I am having a hard enough time figuring out how to format it without being misled by the template example…

  Hi,

  I’m sorry for the confusion, and I’ll be happy to help.

  Is it a custom design upgrade?

  No, this is built into the theme.

  To add that menu, you’ll need to 1) create a custom menu, 2) save the custom menu, then 3) assign your newly–created custom menu as the Secondary Menu under Theme Locations (all under Appearance -> Menus).

  There should be a note on the theme info stating this

  I’ll look into seeing if we can add a better description on the Oxygen theme page.

  Let me know if you have any other questions.

  Hi,

  I just wanted to let you know that we’ve updated the description on the Oxygen theme showcase page to better explain the custom menus.
