Dropdown menu question

Get Started

Dear all,

In this random dropdown menu, the first menu item is ‘UK’ and on hover the submenu items ‘crime’, ‘politics’ etc appear. So ‘UK’ points to its own URL but I am wondering would it be possible to have ‘UK’ as just a not-clickable heading rather than a link ie would it be possible to make the submenu links appear on hovering ‘UK’ without ‘UK’ itself being a link?

I guess the href=… could be removed from ‘UK’ but maybe this would mess up the rest of the menu / submenu.

Thank you

Yeah cool I tried it with normal html / css and it works but any suggestions for how to do this in Wordpress??

thanks

If you must make your navigation that hard to use then just remove the link from that option.

Here is my site with a dropdown menu working in the way described above. One menu item for example is ‘St Francis’ which is itself a link and which on hover displays a submenu. I want ‘St Francis’ to be a heading which reveals the submenu but not itself a link. Any suggestions please??

Thank you

Yeah, Just totally remover the entire anchor tag and it should work just fine.

Thanks for reply, we just crossed posts. It is not meant to be hard to use. Suppose I am doing a site for a football team and one menu item is ‘match reports’ - then sub-menu items are ‘May 24th’ ‘May 17th’ etc ie the various matches. So I would want ‘match reports’ to be the heading for the submenu links without being a link itself.
