Linking back to separate website

Hello, We are launching website separate from nationbuilder, and will only be using nationbuilder to host our donate and petitions pages, send email blasts, and maintain our supporter database. So we would like it if people who, for example, signed a petition, could just click on our logo on the top of the page and be redirected to our main website. How can we make this happen?

Hey Charity --

That's a great question! Lots of NationBuilder customers use their nations as micro-sites or "action centers" connected to their existing website, and NationBuilder works great when set up this way. We have built a page type -- the "Redirect Page" (pictured below) -- that allows you to create a navigation item that redirects to another URL entirely (including one on another domain).

If, however, you want folks to be able to click on your site's logo to return to your non-NationBuilder site, you'll need to create a custom theme and edit the code directly. It's not possible to set a redirect page as your homepage, so you'll need to manually edit your 'layout.html' file to change where the logo points (from your 'home' page to the specific URL you'd like it to point to).
