Add “external” link to admin menu in the backend
you can create a function that redirects to the front-end like this: function redirect_home_987(){ wp_redirect( home_url() ); exit; } and call that function in WordPress default add_menu_page function like this: add_menu_page( ‘redirecting’, ‘View Site’, ‘read’, ‘my-top-level-handle’, ‘redirect_home_987’); Hope this helps
