Add Home link in Magento top navigation menu

Last modified

By default there is no Home link in Magento top navigation menu but you can easily add it yourself.

1- Copy following 2 files

design/frontend/base/template/page/html/topmenu.phtml
design/frontend/base/template/catalog/navigation/top.phtml

TO

design/frontend/default/yourtheme/template/page/html/topmenu.phtml
design/frontend/default/yourtheme/template/catalog/navigation/top.phtml

2. Replace the content with following code


<?php $_menu = $this->getHtml('level-top') ?>
<?php if($_menu): ?>
<div class="nav-container">
    <ul id="nav">
         <!-- HOME BUTTON HACK -->
        <?php $_anyActive = false; foreach ($this->getStoreCategories() as $_category) { $_anyActive = $_anyActive || $this->isCategoryActive($_category); } ?>
        <li class="<?php echo !$_anyActive ? 'active' : '' ?>"><a href="<?php echo $this->getUrl('')?>"><?php echo $this->__('Home') ?></a></li>
        <!-- HOME BUTTON HACK -->
        <?php echo $_menu ?>
    </ul>
</div>
<?php endif ?>
