Sorry if this has been already answered.

Is there a simple way to place a clickable link (like "Return Home") in the introductory paragraph, used as the DSpace home page, running with a default xmlui theme?
I am trying to edit and presume the proper place would be /[dspace home]/config/news-xmlui.xml

I wish to link back to my wordpress site. If someone can present an example, then I want a clickable link to "https://montaguearchive.org" and the text might be a heading like "<H2> Return to Main Site</H2>".
Thanks

How about this:

<div rend="h2"><xref target="https://montaguearchive.org">Return Home</xref></div>


If you add ?XML to dspace URLs you can see the xml being fed to the xsl that makes the html.  That might give you some more ideas.

Perfect! Works fine.
I followed a half dozen tutorials. They were all far more complicated and none of them worked. Thanks for eliminating this headache!
