Re: [CONSOLIDATED] Menus in WordPress 3.0

Wordpress 3.0 has just been officially released. Should everyone with an Arras site built using a previous version of Wordpress upgrade to 3.0 or will that cause problems?

Re: [CONSOLIDATED] Menus in WordPress 3.0

It should work. I'm running a local version of one of the beta's and it works just fine.

Re: [CONSOLIDATED] Menus in WordPress 3.0

I just upgraded to Wordpress 3.0. I get a message saying that the theme doesn't support the navbar. Screeny is attached. I'm using Arras version 1.4.3

UPDATE. It does allow me to create a menu and it shows up correctly on my site but I still get that message in the dashboard.

Re: [CONSOLIDATED] Menus in WordPress 3.0

Yeah, that will be fixed in the next update of Arras IIRC. The custom menu thing in WP 3.0 is great by the way. Pages, categories, custom links. Goodbye to menu-plugins, WP can handle it on its own now.

Re: [CONSOLIDATED] Menus in WordPress 3.0

I tried 3.0 on my test blog and aside from the menu disappearing (I created another in Dashboard), I see no other problems as yet. I will still wait for the next Arras update before upgrading to WP 3, I think.

Hi Everyone,

I installed the Arras theme today, and have fallen in love!  My only problem is I do not have anything in my Navbar.  I searched the forum, but couldn't find a solution. 

What am I overlooking?  I'm using WP 3.0.  My blog address is http://hairlosshelpcenter.org

Thanks!

Not for 1.3.6 though right?

Re: [CONSOLIDATED] Menus in WordPress 3.0

The solution is right above. Use the WP 3.0 Dashboard to create a Nav bar. Look under Appearance>Menus. smile

Which version of Arras theme are you using?

Re: [CONSOLIDATED] Menus in WordPress 3.0

Ack!  Also on the menu.  I put the parent categories in the menu, but now I have to manually add each child category and sub-child category to that.  Some of the categories were named similarly - Canadian information for parents was divided into baby, child, teen - as was American information and International resources.  I have no way of telling which child category goes where.  I am not happy.  I did a lot of work customizing my menu this week and the new wp 3.0 just trashed it.    Is there anyway to fix this or am I going to have to add categories manually everytime I create one?  I really liked the way ARRAS handled menus better.

I figured it out.  It wasn't the theme that was causing the problem.  It was the Headspace 2 Plug-in.  After de-activation, picture loading resumed normally.

Re: [CONSOLIDATED] Menus in WordPress 3.0

To continue using the current menu you have, look in the header file and comment out code like this:

/*
    if ( function_exists('wp_nav_menu') ) {
        wp_nav_menu( array( 'sort_column' => 'menu_order', 'menu_class' => 'sf-menu menu clearfix') );
    } elseif ( function_exists('pixopoint_menu') ) {
*/
    if ( function_exists('pixopoint_menu') ) {
        pixopoint_menu();


Fixed it for me

Re: [CONSOLIDATED] Menus in WordPress 3.0

I love the new menu builder, not only I can customize the shit out of it (if I want to) but it also makes two plugins obsolete.

Re: [CONSOLIDATED] Menus in WordPress 3.0

I have the menu working in WP3.0 via Appearance - Menus but when i set a page to have a parent it no longer shows up under that parent in the menu bar.

Anyone know how to fix this?

Re: [CONSOLIDATED] Menus in WordPress 3.0

Put both the parent and the child in. Put the child under/next the parent.
