    Hello,

    I have a wordpress blog and a phpbb forum. I would like to put a page button on the top of my page which is supposed to link the user directly to the forum when he clicks on it (opening the forum in a new page). How can one arrange that? Would this also be possible for a facebook page?

    Thanks!

    It's completely possible. You'd just need to hardcode the links into one of your theme's template files. Probably header.php or sidebar.php

    I want that link to appear as a page right next to the "about" page etc. and I get it to appear there but without a title, by copy and pasting the command as a title into the headline of a new page. Anyone know how to get arounf that?

    Oh, you want a regular text link. I saw the word "button" in your above post and thought you wanted an button image link. Try this:

    <a href="YOUR LINK URL" target="_blank">YOUR LINK TITLE</a>

    No you are right in the first post but for me this is more difficult as I am using a theme and I want the link to be basically a button in the row where all the Pages are. I can create pages next to each other, where at the beginning the home button and the abou tpage are located. I want a direct link via button rightnext to that. Cn you help me?
