No problem, reason79.

Now, to make Home the first tab, in your Dashboard, go to Pages -> Edit; on the right sidebar, at the bottom there’s a section that reads “Order”, I think by default is set to 0 (zero). If it is indeed set to zero, then just leave it like that; go to your other pages and enter “1”, “2”, etc… just in the order you want them to appear.

Also, you may want to consider making the HOME tab linkable to your blog’s homepage (http://truthnlogic.wordpress.com/). I think it is done by entering this code in the Title of the page:
```
<a href="http://truthnlogic.wordpress.com/">Home</a>
```
However, that doesn’t work for me… I sure am doing something wrong… I tried finding the thread where they explain how to do it but couldn’t find it.

devblog – what you are doing wrong is not putting a space behind the word home. For whatever reason, it has to have a space or two words in order to work.

Also, I just saw your CSS and you added the word Home to it… I see this:
```
Home body {
background:#fff;
font:normal 1em Tahoma,sans-serif;
margin:0;
padding:0;
}
```
Remove “Home” from there.

I put the code Home in the Edit Page name spot? With the space and that’s whats happening

So what do i do about that empty space?
devblog · Member · Jan 15, 2009 at 3:08 am

Yes, now that’s working.

To get rid of the space, add this code to your CSS:
```
#menu ul li a[href="http://truthnlogic.wordpress.com/home/"] {display: none; border: solid 1px #f00 !important;}
```

I’m sorry, when I test things I add a border. Don’t include it.

The code should read like this:
```
#menu ul li a[href="http://truthnlogic.wordpress.com/home/"] {display: none;}
```

You had it working already! why did you change it??

Just follow the previous instructions, and as you had it working once, you can have it working again.

also, move the new code I gave you below the “#menu ul li a:hover” definition, so it looks like this:
```
#menu ul li a:hover {
background:#222;
color:#fff;
}

#menu ul li a[href=http://truthnlogic.wordpress.com/home/] {
display:none;
}
```

Sorry, I’m really tired… ignore this post:

I didn’t force reload my browser, so I didn’t see the change.

You still need to change the CSS code, though.

I see you moved the code, but you forgot the double quotes as I typed them here:
