Looks like you’ve worked it out. If you’re still stuck (or for anyone else reading):Go to Appearance>Menus
Click the “Add Menu” tab (top of the right-hand column, next to ‘Blank Menu’. Looks like a + sign with dots underneath.
Give your new menu a name, and click “Create Menu”.
Select stuff in the left column, and click “Add to Menu” to add it to your new menu.
Drag your headings around in the right column to put them in the order you want. You can create sub-menus this way.
When you’re done, Save the menu.
To use the menu on your site, in the top box on the left column, choose the menu you want to use.You can create lots of different menus, but only use one at a time.

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /var/html/dev/wp/wp-content/plugins/crayon-syntax-highlighter/crayon_langs.class.php:340) in /var/html/dev/wp/wp-content/plugins/crayon-syntax-highlighter/crayon_wp.class.php on line 220By default, the slider shows the most recent posts, and is updated every time a new post is made. I wanted it to remain static and link to pages – like a fancy menu.
The trick is to allow it to show Posts still, but only posts from a specific category. You make four posts, using the timestamp to determine their order on the slider, and make sure they are the only posts in that category. Then you tell each of those posts to redirect to the Page that you really want to show. This is all done with the help of a couple of plugins.
In Posts>Categories create a new post category (name it something obvious just for your front page, so you won’t accidentally use it elsewhere)
Install the Frontpage Manager plugin (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/frontpage-category-filter/).
In Settings>Frontpage Manager, set the frontpage to only show posts from your special category.
Install the Page Links To plugin (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/page-links-to/).
Create the Pages you want your users to see. Do whatever you want, no special considerations here. But make a note of the url.
Create the Posts for your front page. Your users will never actually see this post; the image and text will appear on the slider, but NOT on the final Page where the user ends up.Put a short and sweet text description.
Add an image (landscape format works best in the slider) but make it a featured image.
Set the post category to the special category you made earlier. This will make it show up on the frontpage slider.
Finally, thanks to the Page Links To plugin, there is a new box labelled ‘Page Links To’. In here put the url of the Page that you want your users to see instead of the Post you are writing.OK, so now your blog page is acting like a fancy menu instead of a blog. But what if you still want traditional blog posts too?
Make a new Category called (for example) ‘Blog’.
Make a Menu item that links to the ‘Blog’ Category.
When users click that your menu item, they get taken to a normal blog page with all Posts in the ‘Blog’ Category. Just remember, whenever you make a new post, put in in the ‘Blog’ category (you can put it in other categories as well, but if it’s not in the ‘Blog’ category it won’t show on that page).

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /var/html/dev/wp/wp-content/plugins/crayon-syntax-highlighter/crayon_langs.class.php:340) in /var/html/dev/wp/wp-content/plugins/crayon-syntax-highlighter/crayon_wp.class.php on line 220I’m struggling with this. Like the OP, I moved the menu code from footer.php to the end of header.php, to make the menu appear just under the banner header. Then I put an if…endif statement around it as suggested above, to make it only appear if this is the front page.
It works fine without the “if” statement, but when I try the page with the code below, I get an error:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘<' in –my website blah blah– /header.php on line 37
(line 37 is the line beginning <nav id=)
This is the code I have added:
if ( is_front_page() ) {
<nav id=”access” role=”navigation”>
<?php wp_nav_menu( array( ‘theme_location’ => ‘primary_nav’, ‘container_id’ => ‘primary-nav’, ‘container_class’ => ‘nav’, ‘fallback_cb’ => ‘minimatica_nav_menu’ ) ); ?>
</nav>
}
endif;What’s wrong? What I want is, if this is the home page, display the menu. Otherwise, don’t.

It was a plugin called “Frontpage category filter” that was the problem. As soon as I disabled it, I had gallery/lightbox functionality.
I’ve changed to “Frontpage Manager” and that doesn’t conflict.Website creation is back on track!

Or maybe just number them in the little box in the Actions column. Make sure that “Order images by:” is set to “menu order”.
See about 4 mins in to this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=acU9OAZe9TM. You’ll see the numbers magically appear when he reorders his menu.

I can’t get a Gallery to appear at all, after trying a few different plugins, themes, browsers and PCs.
I’ve started a new thread on the WordPress forum, that isn’t just limited to Minimatica, to see if anyone at all can help.

After a bit of searching, I’ve tried using this lightbox plug-in:
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/jquery-lightbox-for-native-galleries/I can now get the Featured Image to show in the lightbox – but only if I set the post format to something other than Gallery. Other images on the post will open as a new page (link a normal internet link) but not in the lightbox.
If I go to the add media popup, it shows my pictures are in the Gallery tab. Should I need to do anything more to make them appear as thumbnails on the page, and work with the lighbox? Have I set that bit up properly, and my problem lies with the implementation of the plugin, not my page?
I’m really struggling with this!
