   I would like a link to the frontpage of my blog in the sidebar as some users may be slow to catch on to the fact that the header title is actually a link...
   Ideally, it would appear at the top of the sidebar, second best would be at the top of the 'Pages' list.

   Begging as ever, but grateful for any help.

   Hello

   Open sidebar.php and at the very top above any if staements (assuming you want this to be on every page)manually add a link to the homepage.

   Hope it helps.

   Thanks for your reply. The problem is I need the link to be in Japanese and for some reason, although other bits of text entered through the usual WP interface display correctly in Japanese, just adding the link to the sidebar.php file produces garbled nonsense on the screen.
   Have any idea how to get round this?

   I have something like this, maybe that could help
   <a href="<?php bloginfo('siteurl'); ?>">Home</a>

   Yes, that would be fine - if only I could write home in Japanese, 「ホーム」, but editing sidebar.php directly like that, for some reason the Japanese gets garbled.
