  I’ve added my logo to the header but I’d like it to link the home page of my main website and not to the home page of the blog. Without having access to code files I’m not sure how to make this change. What do I need to add to the customized CSS. Any suggestions?

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

  No you cannot create a deceptive header image link that redirects to an external site when clicked. Please read what Google has to say about deceptive linking practices.

  Our blog is a linked as a subdomain of our main website. We are not trying to be “deceptive”. Merely trying to have a more smooth user experience.

  It’s my understanding that you are allowed to link to your website in your custom menu but you are not allowed to link the header image here http://blog.amberlotus.com/ to the website at http://www.amberlotus.com/
