The pro version of Silver Mag doesn’t have an option for the top menu. I see a “primary menu” option in the css (and it was available in the lite version) but there is no option to use it. The menu only offers “secondary menu” and “secondary menu2” layered together. FYI, I put in the code to omit the ticker; not sure if that has anything to do with it.

Yes, The top menu has been removed to accommodate the ticker. To balance that, We have added the secondary menu 2.

Now, You have to add the below code in functions.php file in the Nav menu section,`
```
			register_nav_menus(
			array(
 				
 				'mainNav' => __('Secondary Menu','silvermag' ),
 				'mainNav2' => __('Secondary Menu 2','silvermag' ),
                                'topNav' => __('Top Menu','silvermag'),
			)		
		);
```
After that turn off the Ticker and uncomment the Top Nav Menu in the header.php file,
```
//wp_nav_menu(array('theme_location' =>

to

wp_nav_menu(array('theme_location' =>
```
Hope you can do this without any issues.

Thanks.. Before that backup your files for safety measures.

Should I put that code above the section below or delete it? (I got an “error on line 70” message when I tried to place the code you gave just now.)

register_nav_menus(
array(

‘mainNav’ => __(‘Secondary Menu’,’silvermag’ ),
‘mainNav2’ => __(‘Secondary Menu 2′,’silvermag’ ),
)
);

Hello,

Just add the 'topNav' => __('Top Menu','silvermag' ), inside the array like below the ‘mainNav2’

Hi – I was able successfully to change the functions.php file and turn off the ticker; the primary menu option is now an option. But when I selected the menu it does not show up. (I tried deleting the logo/header image just in case it was overlapping the top menu, but that didn’t work.)

That’s great.

Did you follow the last step?

In header.php uncomment the nav menu section (the sample code above). Don’t remove the code, just remove that slashes.
