 * I’m trying to change a link for a button on the header of my website. Right now
   the PHP for the HEADER reads: [<div class=”greenTop button”>SHOP ONLINE</div>](https://wordpress.org/shop?output_format=md)
 * When I try and change “/shop” to a link outside my current website, it doesn’t
   work. It’s like it will only allow me to link it to another page on the site.
   How do I make it link to an outside website?

 * [<div class=”greenTop button”>SHOP ONLINE</div>](https://wordpress.org/shop?output_format=md)
