Hey my website is http://www.famosomagazine.com and I am wanting to add the forum at http://www.famosomagazine.com/forum to the main navigation bar on the home page. I can find it when i got to page and click view source but I do not know which file to edit or how to exactly add that outside link into the top navigation bar. Thanks for any help

I tried redirectify but it would not work, even after trying to change the coding a little. Any help or other ideas?

“not work” is not enough information to get help…

Well redirectify is a plugin. it did “NOT WORK” for me. I was wondering if there are any other plugins that redirect or any easy ways to add outside links into top navigation.

It’s something with what you put in slug. Read post 19 @ http://asymptomatic.net/2005/03/22/1413/redirectify-plugin/

I use Redirectify to do exactly what you are wanting.

You install the plugin
Activate the plugin
Create a Page called “Our Forum”
After you save that page, edit that page and add the Custom Field key of ‘redirect’ and the value to be http://www.famosomagazine.com/forum

Hi,

I did exactly that but ran into problems. The URL that is formed becomes like this:

http://www.tienpaalla.com/blog/pages/www.tienpaalla.com

So it seems to be doing something right, but where did I go wrong?

Thanks,
Ville

Probably you did NOT start the entered URL with http:// – a common mistake…
