Thanks for the link. That will be very helpful once I figure out what file I need to edit in order to change a given post / page. I’m in my FTP for the site and I don’t know what file or directory I am looking for to get at where the posts / pages are located. I can’t find them in “content” where I thought they would be.
Any further advice is appreciated.
Okay, I realized I had misread the directions slightly. I followed the instructions and it does work. Thanks.
It does, however, have a bit of a delay – it loads the WP page with the instructions for a half second before forwarding to the forum. I can live with that, but I’d be a bit surprised if there wasn’t a way to get into the code and make the direct link to the forum page.
Anyway, thanks again for the help and it’s a big improvement over what I had before.
look in your theme’s page.php
You should be able to go into your theme and add this link pretty easily.
If you open the header.php file for the Stylevantage theme, you will see a section of code like this:
<ul>
<li<?php if ( is_home() or is_archive() or is_single() or is_paged() or is_search() or (function_exists('is_tag') and is_tag()) ) { echo ' class="current_page_item"'; } ?>><a href="<?php echo get_option('home'); ?>">Home</a></li>
<?php wp_list_pages('title_li=&depth=1'); ?>
</ul>
That is your top navigation, it is simply a bit of PHP that makes a list, and that list forms your navbar.
With a minor modification,you can add links to this list:
<ul>
<li<?php if ( is_home() or is_archive() or is_single() or is_paged() or is_search() or (function_exists('is_tag') and is_tag()) ) { echo ' class="current_page_item"'; } ?>><a href="<?php echo get_option('home'); ?>">Home</a></li>
<?php wp_list_pages('title_li=&depth=1'); ?>
<!-- add this line -->
<li><a href="http://www.example.com/forum">Forum</a></li>
<!-- add this line -->
</ul>
It can be a little trickier to do this in phpBB, but there is a good support forum for finding answers, this answer may help you.
