 * Here’s my site, so you can see what I’m talking about:
 * [http://perfectlyincomplete.ktravisj.com/](http://perfectlyincomplete.ktravisj.com/)
 * I am working on those three buttons at the top, “Home”, “Archive”, and “Contact”.
 * Home’s fine.
 * I am trying to fix “Archive” and “Contact”.
 * These are editable in my
 * **Appearance** >> **Editor** >> **header.php** file
 * Here is the code for editing one:
 * Archive:
 *     ```
       <!-- Main Menu -->
       		<div id="menu">
   
       			<a class="home pngf" href="<?php bloginfo("url"); ?>">
       				<span class="atit">HOME</span>
       				<span class="ttxt">is where the hearts is</span>
       				<span class="shad"> </span>
       			</a>
       			<!-- Link For Archives page -->
       			<a class="arch pngf" href="<?php bloginfo("url"); ?>?page_id=81">
       				<span class="atit">ARCHIVE</span>
       				<span class="ttxt">accumulated evidence</span>
       				<span class="shad"> </span>
       			</a>
   
       			<a class="cont pngf" href="#">
       				<span class="atit">CONTACT</span>
       				<span class="ttxt">me, or forever hold your peace</span>
       				<span class="shad"> </span>
       			</a>
   
       		</div>
       ```
   
 * All I want to do is be able to go into my
 * **Pages** >> **Add New**
 * in my dashboard, and create pages called
 * “Archive”
    “Contact”
 * And fill in whatever content I want, in them, and then have that original top
   menu’s two buttons “Archive” and “Contact” link to these, respectively.
 * How can I do this? I have made an Archive, and it’s page URL’s permalink is:
 * [http://ktravisj.com/blog/perfectlyincomplete/page_id81](http://ktravisj.com/blog/perfectlyincomplete/page_id81)
 * But I cannot seem to figure out the best way to insert it in the
 *     ```
       </a>
       			<!-- Link For Archives page -->
       			<a class="arch pngf" href="<?php bloginfo("url"); ?>?page_id=81">
       				<span class="atit">ARCHIVE</span>
       				<span class="ttxt">accumulated evidence</span>
       				<span class="shad"> </span>
       			</a>
       ```
   
 * area of that code, for the “Archive” button.
 * I need some help with syntax–can anyone help me?
 * Thanks.

 * you could try:
 *     ```
       <?php
       $page = get_page_by_title('Archive'); //use exact spelling
       $page_link = get_permalink($page->ID);
       ?>
       <!-- Link For Archives page -->
          <a class="arch pngf" href="<?php echo $page_link; ?>">
          <span class="atit">ARCHIVE</span>
          <span class="ttxt">accumulated evidence</span>
          <span class="shad"> </span>
          </a>
       ```

 * Works wonderfully~ Thank you, my friend.
 * Now can I ask another thing:
 * How does everyone recommend filling that “Contact” page? Like, is there any sort
   of third-party plugin I can get that will let me put a basic form in there, to
   capture user’s “Name”, “E-mail Address”, “Question/Comment”, and then a captcha?
   How could I go about doing that?
 * Thanks.
