# Mobile Menu Button Problem

 * I want to use the 2012 theme for its mobile responsive aspect.
 * I want a simple two-page links, horizontal menu at the top of both pages – page1
   and page2. That’s all.
 * When I create a custom menu, the mobile version of the resulting pages has a 
   gray Menu button at the top of the pages. When clicked, it gives you a vertical
   list of the two pages. I don’t want that. Even when I use no custom menu, the
   gray menu button shows up.
 * It looks like I want on the desktop version, but the mobile version mysteriously
   creates that menu button.
 * [The site is here.](http://www.suburbanmobile.com) View on mobile device.
 * When I remove this line of code from the header.php file the button goes away,
   but the navigation links go away as well.
 *  <h3 class=”menu-toggle”><?php _e( ‘Menu’, ‘twentytwelve’ ); ?></h3>
 * Ideas?

 * Do not edit the Twenty Twelve theme. It is the default WordPress theme and having
   access to an **unedited** version of the theme is vital when dealing with a range
   of site issues. First [create a child theme for your changes](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes).
   This topic has been covered a few times already, so a forum search may yield 
   some useful solutions.

 * esmi,
 * Thanks. I understand about child themes. I’ve spent a lot of time searching for
   how to eliminate that menu button and create the simple menu I want and found
   nothing. Can you/anyone point me in the right direction?
