Dear Lucius

I see a lot of sites using the scroll top top link, It is very useful becasue when i’m done reading i hate to scroll all the way up there. How can I create one of those for myself on my blog?

Thanks
Sammy

Hello Sammy,

Im glad you brought this up. Its a pretty simple code you can add to your site or your blog.

First, open the header.php and verify that you have a <div id=”header”> somewhere. This should be the case on more than 95% of blogs anyways is you’re using wordpress.

If you dont see it or you want to add the “Back To Top” link on a static page simple add this link on code

<a name=”header”></a> on the top of that page.

Then

Open footer.php (or any other file) and insert the following code where you want your link to appear:

<a href=”#header”>Scroll To Top</a>

Its that simple. Now, your readers can easily scroll to top after reading a post.
