- How can I change the favicon for my SS site? I couldn't find anything in the Wordpress/Symbiostock theme. Is a special Plugin required? If so which one do you use?
- How to change the "above header menu" (upper right corner)? Configuration under "Appearance > Menus" has some effect but two menu items that seem to come with the SS theme show up and aren't even listed under "Appearance > Menus". Any ideas?
admin edit: changed the subject to be more descriptive. If every thread with a question was titled 'a couple questions' the forum would be a mess.

I used this plugin for the favicon http://archetyped.com/tools/favicon-rotator/ (http://archetyped.com/tools/favicon-rotator/)

I believe this was by default called "categories" so make that your active tab. (or whatever name you have your above header category) If you have items in there you do not want, to remove them you have to expand that bar - see the word "Page" on the right has an arrow beside it, click that arrow and it will expand so you delete that menu item from here. Then don't forget to "save menu". These are two things that made me go "duh!" when it took too long to figure out :) (Nice red drawing with my finger on the flat mousepad eh!)

Thank you for your tips, Pixart. I will try that favicon plugin you suggested.
The menu issue, however, isn't solved. Here is what I have under "appearance > menus" and what shows on my site. The three items configured are showing behind the two that are miraculously displayed without (knowingly) ever being configured.

The cart and login/logout are hard-coded into the menu widget, so you don't need to add them, and Leo's suggestion was that it would be a good place to put About Me and Contact. That's the way we have set it up.

Thank you, Tinny! The video clips helped me understand that I was actually trying to get rid of theme functionality. LOL
Great, both issues resolved. Thank you again, both of you.

Yep, exactly what I have understood now. That's going to be how I'll set it up as well, then.

Im confused tho as to why we have Login / register at the top, which makes sense, but then its duplicated in your main menu. I would like to just have it once, in the top menu, and no where else. I couldnt figure out how to fix that so mine isnt right. I tried to fix that my first wo install and the pages got so jacked around i ended up doing a complete reinstall of wp and themes. I will go watch the rest of the videos too. Maybe then i will get it.

I think it will only be duplicated if you put it there / allow it to stay ?

Thanks for reminding me to take them out of the main menu!

So it is ok to take the second one out. Wonder why there is two to begin with?

The default main menu only has Home in it. I added the cart and login before I made a custom top menu and didn't get round to taking them out again. If you set the menu widget selectors to blank you get the defaults.

I have managed somehow to unlink my name at the Above Header menu with the License Management page. :-( I know how I did it, I tried to rename the License Management page to Shopping Cart. Now I get an oops page. How can I relink those two? I have already tried deleting my Above Header menu, taking it back to default, then recreating the Above Header menu, but they are still disconnected. I am always taking one step forward then two steps back. Very discouraging. :-\
