Hi just starting with pinegrow after using FrontPage for decades and I am trying to assign hyperlinks to buttons but am at a loss. I have put buttons on page but where do I put the hyperlink to link to page?

Do you mean with bootstrap (or some other framework) or with plain HTML?

@marklefty If its Bootstrap try adding the button class to the link, e.g. `<a href="#" class="btn btn-primary">Your Link</a>`

check this out too.  
its very good. by way of explanation.

Not passing the buck.  
if you don’t get it, then I can knock up some diagrams for you.  
its not that Pinegrow isn’t behaving as you’d expect, its that the logic of using links on a button aren’t as you would expect.

Neither did I!

I just did the _insert code_ bit on the orange line, between suitable elements on the tree and pasted this in.  
hey presto  
🙂
