It&#8217;s easy. There&#8217;s a plug in called &#8220;Page Link To&#8221; you can download directly from your &#8220;add new plug-ins&#8221; panel inside of wordpress (just go to plugins in your dashboard and &#8220;Add New&#8221; and search for &#8216;Page Links To&#8217;) or visit their page here: <a href=\"http:\/\/txfx.net\/code\/wordpress\/page-links-to\/\">http:\/\/txfx.net\/code\/wordpress\/page-links-to\/<\/a> and download it there. Does this trick in seconds. This is incredibly useful because one could link to a flickr account for example instead of creating your own photo gallery, or if you link to a category it helps bring those posts back to life instead of kind of being buried there in the sidebar. It also helps re-invigorate interest in your own blog by bringing that older material back to the forefront, so that you can <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Curate\" rel=\"wikipedia\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Curate\">curate<\/a>, <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Iteration\" rel=\"wikipedia\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Iteration\">iterate<\/a> some more and by restoring a sense of continuum and wholeness to the themes and ideas of your blog, which will energize your creativity as you move forward.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.stephenpickering.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/pagelinksto.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1288 aligncenter\" title=\"pagelinksto\" src=\"http:\/\/www.stephenpickering.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/pagelinksto.jpg\" alt=\"pagelinksto\" width=\"500\" height=\"127\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stephenpickering.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/pagelinksto.jpg 500w, https:\/\/stephenpickering.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/pagelinksto-300x76.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Special thanks goes out to the editorial staff at <a href=\"http:\/\/wpbeginner.com\">WPBeginner.com<\/a> for finding this solution for me. I wanted to create a page called &#8220;Poems,&#8221; and then I thought, &#8220;Why can&#8217;t it just link the page tab to the category search result for poems, and provide an instant list of all the posts that I had categorized as such, instead of me having to reprint the poems or creating a new list and links manually?&#8221; They responded to my inquery very quickly and found this solution for me. This is a staff that cares, is interested in their <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Business\" rel=\"wikipedia\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Business\">business<\/a>. It&#8217;s one of the best sites for learning and finding answers about <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"WordPress\" rel=\"homepage\" href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.org\">WordPress<\/a>. They are very engaging. One of their staff even posted a comment on this post, giving me a tip before I had finished iterating it myself.\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to customize where your page tab links to in wordpress?
