How do make my header image link back to my homepage?
-
Hi! I’m sorry, I really did make a good faith effort to google this before I came crying to you for help, but I really am stumped. I could have sworn my header image always linked back to my blog’s homepage. Now, it seems it does not. I’d like it to, and I just am not finding anywhere that I can do this. Somewhere I did find a box to check to show a “home” link at the top of my page, which I enabled, but it would be so much cleaner and more attractive if I could ditch that and just have the header image route there. Again, I thought I remembered this always being the case, did I imagine that?!
PS, are you aware that Bend it Like Becker is the internet’s best blog that no one’s reading?! Could you throw a starving artist a bone and tell your friends on the editorial staff to fresh press me sometime!? There’s a big ol’ fruit basket on its way to WordPress Corporate HQ when that happens.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

I suggest you look through the Themes forum for advice on Bueno, which is a now retired theme http://theme.wordpress.com/retired/bueno/. Do you have the Custom Design upgrade? Have you checked your Theme Options page of the dashboard?

On Bueno the blog title is a home link, not the header image. (Usually the header image is a home link when the blog title is inside the header image area).
But you can create such a link, even without the upgrade. See older reply of mine:

Thank you guys– Raincoaster, I don’t have the upgrade thing. And I did check the theme options but nothing.
Hi Justpi– thanks so much, this is promising! I know I could choose to display the title but stylistically I prefer my image : ) Could I beg you to give me a little extra help as an act of charity??? My question here is: where does the text widget with that code go? If I go into my widgets, it’s only letting me place things on the sidebar or on the footer. I am so confused as to how to edit the header. (And when I go into the actual header menu, I don’t see any where it lets me put in code).
Thank you so much both for responding– I am SO CLUELESS as to this stuff, but am trying to learn!

You just paste the code into an untitled text widget in your sidebar. The widget and code itself won’t show, but the code will do its work.

omg. it worked. thank you thank you thank you everyone!! Really appreciate the help with my cluelessness!!!!

You’re welcome.
To perfect the vertical positioning of the link, turn the 119 to 150, and turn the 180 to 208.
