    Main menu with external link Link to this post

    3 October 2011 at 9:47pm

    Hi all,

    Is it possible to have an external link with the main menu?
    In the Content > Metadata > URL, it is already set to http://localhost/myweb/index.php/.../ so I cannot find out how to create an external link, let's say http://www.google.com

    Regards,

    Serge

    Hey Serge,

    This is easy once you know how - create a new page from the dropdown above the pagetree in the CMS. But rather than selecting "New Page" choose "New Redirector Page". This will allow you to enter the link address.

    Hope this helps,
    Howard

    Dear Howard,

    You're right... I've already tried using the redirector page but I missed the option "Other website URL". I was still looking at the "Metadata". Anyway thanks...

    Serge
