 * I have a header image on my site and was wondering is it possible to create a
   link from there to an external web site as I would like my users to go to another
   website if possible.
 * If possible how would I go about doing this?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fheader-image-275%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * are you referring to this image? [https://focussedonnorthampton.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/cropped-northamptontownbid-banner.jpg](https://focussedonnorthampton.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/cropped-northamptontownbid-banner.jpg)
   
   AND it’s currently placed as a logo? AND will it go to an external link throughout
   the site? if yes
 * you could consider a link in the header.php replacing the current ‘home’ URL.
   The below could help:

 * If you modify the header.php file you should do it in a child theme. If you modify
   it in the theme and the theme gets updated you will lose your work.
