lili, Welcome to the XOOPS forum!

The top menu is probably configurated in the theme. You must edit the theme.html or some helper file (eg globalnav) in the theme directory for that. What theme are you using?

Other possibility is that the top menu is generated by a module as Multimenu or iMenu. In that case you need to adapt this in the admin of that module.

Is this a total new installation?
Then you don't have one of these modules and the edit is to be made in one of the theme files.

(We can't help you, unless you answer the questions!)
