    Is it possible to have images instead of text in my secondary navigation menu? So instead of a button saying 'Home', can place a .png of a house as the navigation/menu link button?

    Yes, you can do this. Here's an article that explains how: http://premium.wpmudev.org/blog/wordpress-custom-menu-icons/

    Hi Victor,
    Thank you for your help.
    I read through and it works to add the images into the menu, but I cannot remove the link text.

    The background image shows up fine, but how can I remove the menu text from the link? If I delete 'Navigation Label' of that link in the menu structure area, it gets deleted/removed from the menu when I click 'Update'. It seems that WordPress needs each Menu link to have a label. Is there a way to hide the label so it doesn't display? Maybe in the css or in the functions.php file?

    Thank you.

    Insert a non-breaking space in the Navigation label field. A non-breaking space is created with   You may have to use 2 or 3 non-breaking spaces to give you the correct width for the images.
