I needed to change the twentyeleven theme folder name, so I activated the default theme, changed the twentyeleven folder name to X, then reactivated it. Everything worked except the menus were all in the wrong places. I figured out they needed to be redefined in Menus>Theme Locations. But now, there's an extra sitemap listing in the footer.. I didn't put it there and can't figure out how to get rid of it. It's listing out the sitemap in ul tags, twice. Any suggesions?

A URL would be helpful, so we can see the issue. Also: have you disabled all Plugins? – Chip Bennett Sep 4 '12 at 15:04

Try going to Dashboard -> Appearance -> Menus and re-applying your custom menus to the appropriate Theme locations.

By changing the directory name, you've impacted the theme_mods, including custom menus. To WordPress, /wp-content/themes/twentyeleven/style.css and /wp-content/themes/X/style.css are two different Themes, even if all the files are the same.

this was exactly the problem, thanks! Also, to get rid of the sitemap in the footer I went into footer.php and deleted: <?php wp_nav_menu( array( 'theme_location'=> 'footer2' ) ); ?> not sure why it wasn't doing anything BEFORE I changed the folder name, or I would have changed it sooner. but, it's fixed now! – jamie Sep 4 '12 at 15:04
