Alright, I went ahead and made a plugin to do it and it was surprisingly easy. Thanks for all the direction guys.
Leonardo, since I was doing exactly the same thing you're looking for, I'll go ahead and give you the steps here:
- Go to admin site -> Plugins & Products -> Add New Plugin
- For Hook Location, choose "process_templates_complete", and enter whatever title you want
- Choose the radio button at the bottom to set the plugin to active
- Enter the following code in the code box, obviously replacing the URL with the URL to your home page:
Code:
$tabselected = '';
$tablinks = '';
$template_hook['navtab_start'] .= '<li'.$tabselected.'><a class="navtab" href="http://www.yourwebsite.com">Home</a>'.$tablinks.'</li>' ;
