  Hey guys i have a celebrity blog at http://www.gossip565.com I moved from blogger and i love it. Now i was trying to add tab buttons to my page and i figured out how to do that. But what i still can’t figure out is how to add a link to an external website. I want to add a tab to go to my business website http://www.ddkadvertising.com and i have no idea how. I already added them under the whole blogroll but i want tabs on top of the page to go to different sites. Now i was doing some research and some say i need a plug in but anytime i tried to get one it wouldn’t work i am using a mac so that might be a problem.i looked everywhere and i couldn’t find anything to help me. Any help is so greatly appreciated. Thax so much!!! Also when i download themes does do not work either!! Thax

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

  Please don’t use ALL CAPS. It’s considered shouting.

  You cannot use plugins or downloaded themes at WordPress.com; they are only for WordPress.org: see this thread

  Also, you can’t add tabs to a theme that doesn’t already have them, not even with the CSS upgrade. You CAN just choose a different theme, one with tabbed headers, and make one of the tabs link to your external site. There’s a workaround for it here:

  Instead use the Blogroll widget, and it to the sidebar, and add the link through links in the dashboard.
