   I searched the forum to find "how to create a home page tab" and found this response:

   In your header.php, look for ...

   <div id="naviation"

   This DIV holds your nav bar, once you find that you should see something not far below that looks similiar to this...

   <?php wp_list_pages(); ?>

   Change it to....

   • /">Home

   <?php wp_list_pages(); ?>

   That's a very basic example, but it should point you in the right direction.

   I looked carefully in the header.php file and it doesn't have any reference to navigation. I just installed the SEO Basics theme and I'm at http://www.survivewith.me. I have created pages but I can't figure out how to get back to the home page since there is no tab.

   The template tag, wp_page_menu(), has a 'show_home=true` argument that will add Home to your list of Pages.

   Which template file is it in? I loaded most into Wordpad and searched for wp_page_menu() and found nothing.

   Thanks for you help.

   What I'm saying is, you might consider use wp_page_menu instead of wp_list_pages (which you have to hardcode a Home link).

   I've put in the wp_page_menu(show_home=HOME)into my header file for the in-Berlin template. The Home link appears on the menu bar, but as a hyperlink, elevated, underlined, and a dark gray.
   I can't figure out how to configure the font for this so it will appear like my about page.

   Many Thanks!
