Default Changing Home Link

Hi,

Just wondering if anyone knows how to change the "Home" link in the links bar at the top? At the moment it's going to www.websitename.com and i need it to go to www.websitename.com/page1.html?

I've had a look around and i can't seem to find where the url is specified anywhere.

Thanks

James

Hi Mike,

Thats great thanks, just the job.

Just one final thing (i promise) , do you know how to change the maximum length of categories? i've got a couple of categories with very long names and the software keeps chopping them off which is pretty annoying.

Thanks

James

You would have to edit the actual database field length. It is set to 32 characters in the DB and you would need to alter that to be longer.
