 * I am just working on implementing a BLOG. I am a bit stuck on a silly item (okay
   I think it’s silly). Adding pages is easy. But, say I want to add a “link” at
   the top of my navigation bar to my archives or “Home” Do I just add a page and
   enter something via HTML.
 * I am used to using Joomla! —- ooops!

 * Could I see the page?
    It depends how your nav bar is set up. If it’s jut listing
   pages, whenever you create a page it will show up. If it’s hard coded into a 
   template file like header.php, you can add a link via HTML.

 * Sure!

 * Right now I have it set up as “pages”. I’d prefer to hardcode things so that 
   my Tags (for example) appear when I click a link and there are no “pages” involved.
 * Thanks for any help you can provide

 * From the location of your navigation, I think that you would probably need to
   edit the header.php
    See if you can find the markup for the links that are already
   there (tags, contact, home, about) and add the link you want using the same set
   up as those links.
 * Right now I do see a home link so maybe you beat me to it?

 * Actually that “home” link is bogus. I would like to use “pages” in WordPress.
   The theme I am using links WP pages to my Navigation structure. I was able to
   get a page working properly with my “contact” plugin using “%%wpcontactform%%”.
   So, then, my question is, can I use the same method to add a “Home” link?
 * I am new to WordPress, so my questions may be a bit lame.
 * Any help & advice is appreciated!
