The links on my menu page do not redirect to the URL.
-
This question is for my professor. I am her TA. When I click the links I have created on the homepage menu, they do not bring me to the URL page I have written. It does however, work on the left side bar of links. What could be the issue?

Hello,
Can you post the website’s URL so we can better understand the issue? We’d appreciate it if you can also provide the links you have created in the homepage menu and the URL(s) page you have written where you want those links to go.

Thanks for the link. The thing here is that all the menu items are linked to the home page. Are the menu items (Bonn, Vienna, etc.) supposed to be linked to a page/post within that site or to a different site?
Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to create a menu whether those menu items are linked to a page/post within the site or to a different one: https://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/

Okay. I suggest you clean up the menu by deleting everything and starting from the beginning.
1. Go to your Appearance > Menus page here https://calischoolbeethoven.wordpress.com/bonn/wp-admin/nav-menus.php and click Delete Menu below Menu Settings.
2. Make a new menu name like say “Primary Menu” and then click Create Menu.
3. On the left side, there’s a bar that says Posts, click the arrow down beside it and you’ll see a list of published posts.
4. Check the box for the post you want to add to your menu and click Add to Menu.
5. To edit the menu item, click the arrow down beside the menu item which is now under the Menu Structure at the center of the page.
6. You can change the title of the menu item without changing the title of the post by changing the Navigation Label.
7. Depending on your theme, you will need to check the box where your menu will be located. This can be seen beside Theme Locations also on that page. Usually it will say Primary Menu, Secondary Menu (if your theme supports it). I suggest you just check Primary Menu and then leave the Automatically add new top-level pages to this menu option unchecked unless you want every new page you create be added to this menu.
8. Do this until you have all the posts you want in your menu and you are satisfied with your menu items.
9. Once done, click Save Menu.
