redirecting (forwarding?) blog post to page or portfolio
-
Is there a way I can edit the html or something in a blog post so that when a viewer clicks on it from my home page it automatically forwards them to a different page or project?
more specifically I am trying to not have this sort of page pop up- https://elle-hansen.com/2018/02/06/board-game-alphas-academy/
but rather the page just automatically loadsdoes that make sense? is that possible?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there,
Normally I’d recommend the Link post format, as it was designed to do exactly this. But it appears that the theme you’re using does not have support for post formats:
Themes Supporting Post Formats
The other option would be to write the title of the post as an HTML link:
<a href="URL_YOU_WANT_TO_LINK_TO">Title you want to appear for the post</a>It won’t work perfectly, but it’s better than nothing in this case.

Yeah, i already have links in each post that i need to redirect, like you said it works, just not that professional… you would think this would be a pretty easy thing to incorporate in a sites structure… but what do i know ¯_(ツ)_/¯
thanks

It is easy, if your theme supports it. The feature is built right into the WordPress software. Your theme’s developer did not add support for that in the theme, though. That’s something the theme developer would need to change – The Hermes theme you’re using is not on of ours so we cannot make the change from our end.
As this is a premium theme, you can try asking the developer in the theme’s forum about the possibility of adding support for post formats:
