  how do I make the menu in my left bar widget different to the main menu? Whatever I set my left bar widget menu to appears in the top menu too. I want them to be different menus. I am using the Organic Block Theme which apparently doesn’t have menu locations for the theme…

  Thanks for the reply. The address is beatnikbreaks.com. I’ve actually been in touch with support from the supplier of the theme and the problem is that the theme needs updating as the previous version wasn’t compatable with the lates version of WordPress.

  Thanks again,
