Stop WordPress adding a page to navigation?

I’m making a page on my Articles website for A4U forum members to get discount prices on my packages. The site is based on WordPress and when I add the page it's adding it to the navigation, and I don’t want other site visitors been able to find the page in the navigation! Does anyone know how I can use WordPress to not add this page to navigation?

Thanks

Find the ID number of the page

(In the admin panel, click on pages and hover the mouse over the page title, the page ID number will appear in the status bar, not down the number.)

Go to edit header.php, find where it lists pages and add "exclude=15&" (where 15 is the page ID),so you'll up with something like:

<?php wp_list_pages('exclude=15&depth=1&title_li='); ?>

Thanks, but I cannot find this in header. Is there a plugin for this?

If your using WP 3.0 or above and depending on which theme you are using you can go to Appearance - Menus and create your own menu to which you can drag any pages you want and into which order.

Then on the same page you should be able to select your newly created menu.

I have set the page to private, it seems to have worked? Can you see it ok? - Articles A4U offers

Sorry, the page your requested could not be found, or no longer exists.

Post up the header.php code and I'll see if it's easy enough to change if you want

Merry Xmas!!

Yes the custom menu function rocks, it is a really good feature and you will acheive this within a few clicks..no messing with php files

If you're still stuck, there's a plugin which does exactly what you want. When adding a page you simply tick a box and it won't get included in the menu.

From memory, I think it's called 'WP Exclude Pages'
