Ok, i understand what primary and secondary links are... but where on earth are they? when i go to configure my theme (which is box_grey) there is no mention of it anywhere... right at the top on the left hand side of the page there is "EDIT PRIMARY LINKS" (this is there permanantly- no matter which menu i am on. logged in or logged out)... that takes me to the menu administration screen. I have tried creating a test menu item.. and then logging out... nothing appears. merely a log in form, and the "EDIT PRIMARY LINKS" at the top. hmmm... what am i missing? i feel a bit thick.

Ok, and how do i get rid of the horrible "edit primary links" at the top of the page, when nobody is logged in? the front page of the site has this... and isnt really relevant to normal users who just wish to browse the site, as its an administration function. I haven't found much menu friendly documentation to guide me through this. I want to develop and customise my menu's and so far its been a little cloudy.

In 4.6

admin/themes/settings for xTemplate theme's
Go to the theme page itself for phpTemplate based themes

I have 4.7

I really can't see anything. So i go to administer>menu

I have a navigation system that looks like this:
Navigation
Menu item Expanded Operations

with all my administration menu items listed below. Above that i also have :list add menu add menu item reset menus

What do i do? How do i get rid of the "EDIT PRIMARY LINK" text displaying throughout the site and on the front page to non administrators?

Hmmmmm...

you can either fill out a bug report, or go into your page.tpl.php in your theme's directory and delete the code for primary links.

I set mine to No primary and No secondary links and they went away.

I have found out where they are... next question is: how do i edit the html source for displaying the links? (i.e the bit that says <ul><li...> ? I can add menu items and manage my menu's but i would like to control the way they are displayed, and assign a class to them.

You'll have to adapt existing 4.6 stuff at this point
