Thanks for reading.
I have created a static welcome page that greets every visitor to my blog (temp address is http://www.cataxrevolution.com). This seems to be working out well, however, there is a bug.
Once the visitor has "entered" into the site, if they click on the "HOME" page, it takes them back out into the welcome screen. I need it to take them to the blog page instead, which would be http://www.cataxrevolution.com/DanWarp
Can someone tell me how to make that change?
Thanks!

Thank you for suggesting the video, however it does not provide me with the instructions to do what I am asking. It provides me with the instructions to do what I have already done.
If you visit the site, I already have my static front page. Then, the visitor clicks on the link to visit the blog. On the header I have a list of all my pages in the blog, the first being HOME. That home page link, when clicked, takes the visitor back to my static page. I want that link to take them to the blog page, not the front page.
Any ideas?

Only thing I can think of - and I'm not a coder anymore so make a backup first! ;)
Go to whatever theme you're using - and edit the header.php file near the bottom - there's a code line for the links that looks like :
code to come - having trouble figuring out how to paste it
Remember to add the < in front of the a just after the li - but anyhow - replace the php code with "http://www.cataxrevolution.com/DanWarp" and try it
That 'might' work - I haven't tested, but just my first thought. You just have to remember it's theme independent.
Before I edit stuff like that, I always make a copy of the original in case I fry something...then just swap the file...Curious if it works though! Since I can't get the backticks to work for posting code - if this doesn't make any sense - give me an email and I'll send you the exact code I was talking about

Just tested this theory and it works fine.
