Create link to external site on navigation bar.

I need to know how I can create a link to a different website on the navigation bar. I want to create a block on the navigation bar that will take my members to my store website which has a different URL than my social site. Please help.

I did do that and I named it as store, i added the URL for my store site but when you click on the button to navigate to my store, it navigates to a url within my social network site.

Example

www.socialsite.com/www.store.com

I just need the button to navigate to the external store URL when you click on it.

Example

www.store.com

For a external url to be treated as a external url you must specify it as a full absolute url which includes http://

Incorrect  - www.store.com
Correct - http://www.store.com

 

Without the http:// dolphin treats it as a relative url rather than a absolute url. Dolphin cannot assume you mean external just because you put a www on it or a .com on it because both are valid relative url's.

Example http://www.socialsite.com/www.store.com as you ended up with is a valid relative url because www.store.com could easily be a sub directory as well as a domain. So you need to be specific by using a absolute url.
