Alibi 1.2 – Change URL in header

I just used this method today on 2.7.1. Worked perfectly. Thank you NC@WP ).

The contents of your page template will look like this when done:

<?php
/*
Template Name: Homesite
*/
?>
<?php header('Location: https://www.myhomepage.com');
      die();
?>

You would save this template example as homesite.php and upload it to the themes folder, and apply the template to the new page you created.
Just substitute your page name and url, of course.

You can then change the name of the default “Home” page (probably hard coded in header.php)to whatever you need.

There are a couple of other methods mentioned in that link as well.

Please help?

Would a mod be kind enough to look at my posts in this thread please. I tried to help out, but I think both of my reply attempts got caught up in the spam queue. Thanks!

Thank you!

don’t know why it flagged you all of a sudden

Old post but found my here looking for solutions to including external URLs in wp_list_pages().

As with most things wp_list_pages related, I found the solution with the Page Lists Plus plugin which allows you to specify absolute URLs to redirect to from your links.

Hope this helps someone. The above template file solution works too but if you already have use for some of the features in Page Lists Plus then it’s a great plugin to have.
