Adding an External Link to your Site Menu

You can link to an external website from your Site Menu, making it easy to redirect viewers to other sites or content.

The Portfolio > Pages area allows you to create a link to an external website. This will appear in your site menu (navigation area).

3. Set 'Behaviour' checkbox: Off will take the viewer to the website in the current browser tab, leaving your site. On will open the website in a new browser tab, meaning your site is still accessible as well as the new site.
