Make a tab link to a different site
Install the handy “Page Links To” plugin to send your users straight to another site from a page tab!
Normally, a tab in the navigation bar will take you to the page – from here:
to here.
Which is all well and good, unless “here” only creates one more click to the destination!
To make a direct jump, install the “Page Links To” plugin. (On your Plugins page, click “Add New” and type “Page Links To”. Then select this one to install automatically.)
With this plugin, you’ll get additional options at the bottom of each page. In this case, we want to change this from a normal page to a redirected page – the specified URL.
Don’t forget to have this open in a new window (or tab)! This will allow your readers to search your catalog without taking them away from your main site.
