In the builder you can tell the links where they are supposed to go but until you actually publish the pages your links will not work. Having cleared that up when you add the menu double left click it, a properties box will open, change the names for the buttons (or text) add the link (www. yoursitename.com/pagename.html) and in the target area if you want it to open in the same window as the first page just leave it empty. There your pages are linked (once you publish them.

Hi,

First and foremost the first page you publish will always be your "home page". This home page must be named "index" and nothing else.

On the index page you create what is called a hyperlink to connect to
every other page on your website.

If you want the visitor to return to your index page, then on every other
page must have a hyperlink back to the home page.

To do this, use the menu tool [navigation tool] on the bottom left toolbar.

To test the links, you have to publish your index and the other pages before you can test the navigation from one page to the other.

In preview mode in IE when you point your cursor on the link, it will change into the **** of a hand. This means that your link is active.

Click file, save page as , index nothing more nothing less. This is how you name (save) all your pages ( different names for the pther pages of course).

Everything has to be done before you publish for it to work.
