    Hi,

    My website is:

    http://www.TouchAholics.com

    And my forums link is:

    forums.touchaholics.com

    I would like to add a link to my forums next to where it says 'About' on my blog home page.

    However, I do not know how to :(

    Could you guys help me and tell me how please?

    Thanks,
    SumDaii

    You could try something along these lines ...

    Open your header.php file and add the following at line 103 (before the closing '/ul' element):

    <li>
      <a href="http://forums.touchaholics.com">Forums</a>
    </li>

    That should create a link placed at the end of the navigation bar.

    PS: Remember if you upgrade the theme you will have to make this edit again.

    You can either edit the template file for your top nav bar (header.php?) and add:

    <li class="page_item"><a class="fadeThis" href="[ link to forum ]">Forum</a></li>

    immediately after <?php wp_list_pages();?>.

    Or you can set up and publish a dummy Forum page using WP and then use the Page Links To plugin to redirect that page to your forum.

    See this technique, How to easily display links to both Pages and Categories in the blog navigation header?, and when you create the page redirect to forums.touchaholics.com
