  I want my menu titles to link to a page in my blog. How can I do that?

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

  Hi,

  On the Penscratch 2 theme that your site is presently using, if a custom menu isn’t displayed, then a default pages menu automatically displays if any pages are published. The fact that no header menu is displayed despite there being at least one published page on the site suggests that 1. There is a custom menu assigned to display instead of the default pages menu, and 2. The custom menu doesn’t have any items in it.

  See the Add Menu Items section of the Custom Menus support page.

  Thanks for your reply musicdoc 1. If I understand you correctly, you’re suggesting I put the links in the header menu just below the blog name/description. I know I could do it that way, but I want all the links to be in the sidebar. I purposely left that menu blank because I think it distracts from the headline of the top post. I’m wondering if anyone knows a way to make the sidebar menu titles link to a page.

  Thanks for the explanation. There are multiple options for including links to pages in a sidebar widget area. For example, you could insert one of the following widgets:

  • Navigation Menu Widget — Just use a different custom menu than the empty one in the header menu location.
  • Pages Widget

  I just noticed that your site has the retired Penscratch theme applied. Do you know that an updated version, Penscratch 2, is available?
