Hiding a page from the navbar

[nathanrouse 0]

I'm working on a page and want to see it 'live' as it were but unreachable by the navigation menu. How do I hide the page so it doesn't appear along with the rest of the pages that I want there?

I realize that was worded strangely. Apologies. Simply: how do I keep a page from appearing in the navbar once published?

You would create a new "Menu" on that page. Then add pages (or categories) from the left hand sidebar (of that page). Each one has a checkbox next to it. You check the ones you want, and then select "Add to Menu". Then click "Save Menu". Note that you'll also need to assign this to be the "primary nav" in the top left corner of the page. (There's a dropdown to choose the menu you just created.)
