3 versions on and it still works!

Unlike another plugin with a similar name, this plugin still works just fine with my WordPress sites and themes. A real shame that it has been abandoned, and I’d love to see an ‘updated’ version by so

Plugin Simply Works – Tested on 6.5.2

This plugin adds a small tickbox at the bottom of the page editor (settings bar on the right) to exclude that page from appearing on the typical navigation bar. Simple and straightforward.
