  Hi,
  Im a new user on wordpress and am using the forever theme. When you scroll over with the mouse, one of my categories cannot be clicked on. Also, on my home page where old posts appear, they aren’t all there. sometimes one will disappear and a new one will appear.
  Thanks for any help

  The menu bar in your blog has links to static pages not to dynamic category pages.

  This is an example of a static page URL. Study it closely and note that no static Page can automatically update.

  This is an example of a category URL. Study it closely please and note that only dynamic category pages can automatically update.

  Setting up a menu is easy as pie, provided you know the differences between Posts and Pages, and the differences between static Pages, (which will never automatically update) and dynamic Categories pages which will automatically update when you publish Posts with Categories assigned to them.

  There are many common errors, misunderstandings and misconceptions when creating custom menus and there are some tweaks you can use to improve your custom menu as well.
