linking pages

  • how would i go about creating a blank page but having the page title link to my website?
    in other words when i create a page i have to add content to the page. like my homepage, about page, contact page etc etc. but i want to create a menu item where my ‘home’ would actually link to my homepage and not my blogs homepage.

    please see https://www.blog.grayfilm.com and look at the link for “HOME” and that might help exemplify

    i would like that “HOME” menu item to point to my website homepage and i cant find a way for wordpress to do that

  • Well, the home button is defined by the WordPress Address in wp-admin/ Options.

    If you want to hard code a tab like “Website”, edit your theme’s header.php and find the <div id="pagetab"> section and add:

    <li class="page_item"><a href="https://www.grayfilm.com/" title="Website">Website</a></li>

    in amongst the code you’ll see.

    I’m pretty new at this and am probably doing things “wrong”, but I made a home link.

    I created a “Features” category for my web site navigation. Then I added links to my blogroll and assigned them to the features category including a “Home” link. I display my blogroll in my sidebar and the features make a nice nav section. If you needed to you could assign a single Home link to category and display it anywhere on your page.

    I thought about the blogroll, but i know you wanted a tab. The way you’re currently doing it, the Home tab takes you to a blank page, which you would need to insert a link to either your actual homepage or the blog homepage.

    If you edit the header.php file, it’ll just add a static tab across all pages for you.
