  I currently have 1 parent page set up with two other pages linked to it. When you hover over the parent page on the menu bar, a drop down list appears showing the two linked pages. I’d like to get rid of this since I have links to the secondary pages on the actual parent page. Is there any way to do so? I’m using the Coraline theme in case that matters.

  Thanks!

  Yes. You can crate a custom menu and include only the Parent page and/or sub=page links you want in it and exclude others.
  1. You create a custom menu. http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/

  2. You add the Parent pages you want to display and arrange them in the order you want.

  3. Then you add and drop and drag the subpages below the appropriate Parent pages, and when you have everything arranged in the menu that you want you save the menu.

  4. Go to the “theme location” module at upper left on the menu page. Select your custom menu name from the pulldown labeled “primary location.” Click the save button in that module.

  5. Refresh your browser so that it isn’t possibly pulling a cached page, and view see your new menu with Parent pages and dropdowns to sub-pages.

  Note: If you wish you can also include Categories and sub-categories of your own choice and custom links in your custom menu as well.
