    Ah, you are using WordPress.

    The template used WordPress: wp_nav_menu. So the Menu Feature is set on.

    In your WP-admin panel under appereance > Menus you can edit your menu items. You can add items, delete items, replace items and change the name of the items.

    I am in WP now … I have my actual live site … and a site running on xampp so I can try stuff there first … then replicate it on the live site … I was wondering about where in the code I could make the change to which ChristopherBurton referenced …

    I will try it through the menu “custom menu setup” … although I dont see anywhere to delete the “home” link …

    In your WordPress menu manager are there any menus connected with your current theme? If not simply create a new menu and then on the left side of the page from the drop down select the new menu as the header menu.

    Once selected the menu should be blank so you can then add your own links for pages of your choice.
