Home page link

    I have lost the Home page link and I have to click the back button to go to my main page (posts). Is there anyway I can get it back?
    Thank you,

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Appearance > Menus: click View All in the Pages module, select Home, click Add to Menu, drag to reposition, click Save Menu.

    For a thorough guide to custom menus see here:

    Thank you justpi!
    That basically creates a link. Is there a way to put it back with my other pages instead of my menu with links?

    and keep the same URL without extensions (as in the case of creating a new page).

    You’re welcome.

    You mean in the right-side “Sitemap” list? That’s also covered in my post on custom menus; quoting:
    “You can also display such ‘irregular’ sets of links in your sidebar or other widget area, by adding Custom Menu widgets.”

    In other words, you go to Appearance > Menus, create a new menu, add the Home item and the About page from the Pages module, create the link to the Authors page in the Custom Links module and add it to the menu, click Save Menu; then you go to Appearance > Widgets, delete the original “Sitemap” widget, add a Custom Menu widget in its place, title it, select the new menu you created, save.

    I tried that! I realized the problem. My theme allows only one menu.
    I guess the solution is to keep all three on top of my links.
    Thanks justpi. I appreciate your help!

    Do read my post please. One menu means one header menu. You can add as many other menus as you like in the right sidebar, the way I explained above.

    Got it justpi. Thanks a lot. The first time I dealt with WordPress was yesterday when I created the site. I had no clue!

    I’ll say you’re welcome when I see the result you were looking for!

    It is done. Thank you again justpi!

    You’re welcome!

    By the way, I made a small mistake above: your “Authors” is a regular static page, so it’s found in the Pages module, like “About” (no need to use the Custom Links module to create the link).

    I made all three custom links. For some reason, I was not getting the title (sitemap) if I had any of these as a page! Anyway, it is ok.

    I have one more question (if I don’t bother you too much). I have invited three more people as administrators. One person has responded but cannot add her information and differentiate herself from me. It seems that she cannot create her own profile. Any ideas?
    Thanks,

    I may have the answer actually. She needs to register first and then I can invite her. Is that correct?

  • Unknown's avatar

    Yes, first she needs to sign up for a wordpress.com account. She can do that here:
    https://signup.wordpress.com/signup/?user=1

    PS1 If you find you need more info on this, start a new thread please.
    PS2 Four administrators is generally not a good idea.

    Taken care of. She had an account.
    Thank a lot justpi!

    We had a site together before. We are colleagues and we trust each other. No danger! :)
