    I have a multisite network in which users can sign up and create their own blogs. The blog theme I'm using is a custom Genesis child theme I created. One thing I can't figure out is how to make it so the primary navigation menu is activated automatically when the theme is "installed" or activated for the first time, rather than requiring the user to go in and manually set the menu. I just want it to show all published pages by default until the user goes in and manually sets it up otherwise. Is this possible within the Genesis framework structure?

    As you posted this a while ago, I hope you were able to get your issue resolved. If it is resolved, please mark this thread as “resolved”, so it can be closed.

    If you are still having issues, report back here, and I will try to escalate.

    I'm kind of disappointed it took over a month to get a response.

    I did get it resolved elsewhere. I was hoping to get an answer from someone from StudioPress though. Oh well.

    I'm glad you were able to get it resolved. If you wanted an answer from StudioPress, you should submit a support ticket - this is the community forums - most of us are community volunteers. It's very rare for someone from StudioPress to respond.

    I will close this thread.
