03 / Website use cases
Where to use site home link
Headers, footers and 404 pages need a simple way back to the home page, but a hand-made link has to be updated when the site address changes and does not tell screen-reader users when they are already home. Site home link always points to the WordPress home address, adds rel="home", marks itself as the current page on the front page and can hide itself there.

08 / Common setup problems
Troubleshoot site home link
Check these settings if the published page behaves differently from the editor.
Why is the link missing on the home page?
Hide on the home page is on.
Where does it link to?
To the home address in Settings > General.
Why is the text “Home” after I cleared it?
An empty text falls back to “Home” so the link always has a name.
Can I add an icon?
Yes. Switch on Show icon; a house is preselected.
Site home link plugin questions
Does it need Elementor Pro?
No. It works with the free version of Elementor.
Does it follow a new site address?
Yes. It always uses the WordPress home address.
Can it look like a button?
Yes. Use the background, padding and radius controls.
Is it accessible?
Yes. It is a real link with visible text, marked as the current page on the home page.
Does it need JavaScript?
No. The output is plain HTML made by WordPress when the page loads.
