Hi. Like many people, I’ve set up a custom header on top on my Discourse forum: [image] I wanted my top menu identical to my Wordpress site (I use WP-Discourse), this is why I kept the “Forum” menu item. I would like this link to reload the forum body when clicked on, exactly when we click on the logo from the regular discourse header bar. How can I achieve this?

Try something like this: FORUM $(function() { $("a.home-link").click(function() { require("discourse/lib/url").default.routeTo( $(event.currentTarget).attr("href") ); return false; }); }); Where you give your link the classname home-link and run a tiny script when it’s clicked to force it to load within the app.

Do you mean reload as in cause the whole page to reload - reload the entire app - or do you just want the link to take you to the homepage within the app?

[image] Johani: or do you just want the link to take you to the homepage within the app? This :slightly_smiling_face:

Try setting the href of the link to "/" Like so: FORUM

Hi, I already tried that as well as adding data-auto-route="true" with no success.

Hi, thanks for your reply. It doesn’t work, and here’s the output code on the page source: Discourse._registerPluginCode('0.8.20', function (api) { $(function () { $("a.home-link").click(function () { console.log("test"); require("discourse/lib/url").default.routeTo($(event.currentTarget).attr("href")); return false; }); }); });

I’m not sure what’s going on on your side, but I’m positive that that would work. Here’s a basic live example on theme creator: https://theme-creator.discourse.org/theme/Johani/forum-link
