WordPress Tutorial - Make a "Back to Top" Link (Advanced)
WordPress Tutorial - Make a "Back to Top" Link (Advanced)
This Advanced-level WordPress Tutorial shows how to insert a "Back to Top" link in a WordPress Page or Post. The tutorial is advanced because it requires use of text editing software and FTP software to download and add HTML code to the header.php file in a WordPress theme. Once you add the HTML code to the header.php file, you can use the Code editing window in the WordPress Dashboard to insert a "Back to Top" link on any page or post. The advanced "Back to Top" link is superior to the "easy" "Back to Top" link covered in an earlier tutorial because it takes you to the top of the page much faster. A faster site provides a better user experience. -Mark McLaren of McBuzz Communications

WordPress Tutorial - Make "Child" Subpages and Subpage Links
This Beginner-level WordPress tutorial shows how to create a "child" subpage that has another page as its "parent". You can make links to these subpages using the Blogroll. In some WordPress themes, links to child subpages appear underneath a link to the parent page in the website navigation links - either in the sidebar or under the main horizontal navigation links. In other WordPress themes, you cannot see any links to child pages. In either case, you can create a visible link to a child page by making a new link under one of your Blogroll categories. This tutorial also shows how to find the web address (URL) of a WordPress child page when it is not visible anywhere in the website navigation links.

WordPress Tutorial - Make a Link to Specific Place on a Page
WordPress Tutorial - Make a Link to Specific Place on a Page
This Intermediate-level WordPress Tutorial shows how to make a link that takes you to a specific place in a Page or Post. You can put a link at the top of a page so that when you click on it, it takes you further down on the same page. You can also put a link on a different page so that when you click on it, it takes you to whatever specific location you designate on the target page. This is an Intermediate-level tutorial because you use the Code editing window to insert the HTML you need to make the link work.

WordPress Tutorial - How to Make a "Child" Page (Subpage) and How to Hide Sidebar Widget Link
WordPress Tutorial - How to Make a "Child" Page (Subpage) and How to Hide Sidebar Widget Link
This beginner-level WordPress tutorial shows 1. How to make a "child" page or subpage of another page (a "parent" page) using the WordPress 2.7 editing interface. And 2. How to hide a link in the Pages sidebar widget, in other words, how to keep a link to a page from showing in the Pages sidebar widget by putting the page ID number into the "Exclude" box in the Pages sidebar widget dialog box. Making "child" pages (subpages) is useful because you may not want all your pages to show in the main page navigation of your WordPress theme. In most themes, only "main" pages (pages that don't have a "parent") show up in the main page navigation. In some newer WordPress themes, child pages show up in a popup menu that appears when you roll over the main page link. And in some themes, sub-subpages show up in popup menus as well. These are sometimes called "cascading" navigation menus: sub-subpages show up in a popup menu when you roll over a subpage link. The second part of this tutorial shows how to hide (or "exclude") a link to a page that would otherwise appear in the links of the Pages sidebar widget. This is useful for a number of reasons. One is that when you make a static page your Home page in WordPress, some themes will show the link to this static page as a second home page link in your main navigation. By making the Home page a subpage and excluding that link from the Pages sidebar navigation, you can eliminate the double Home page link.
