Hello,
If you are talking about the tabs that go right next to the "home" tab, it is real easy.
go to your admin
then go to write
and pages
those tabs are page tabs. They are different than a post. So if you want to create more tabs, just use "write pages". Thats it

Hi Mike. I see your sites say home for the home page just like my two sites do.
Very recently I have been listening to some PLRPro training videos. For max SEO purposes your home page tab for Fibromyalgia
site could say Fibromyalgia Home.
You get a bit more SEO punch for your site that way from what I understand. Maybe add your main or secondary keyword to the home page nav tab. Make sure to always save your original files first such as header.php in case you mess up the code...
Next I did not know how to change the 'home' page title so I did a search on the forums here. This is what I found. I'm going to give credit where it deserves here by including the poster's names. See below.

Hello,
Changing the Header file worked perfectly and should help a touch with the on-page SEO. Changing the landing page for the 'Home' button will be an option if we want to direct the site visitors to a Static HTML page like Robert's Car Auction Review site. I can really see the advantages of this approach, especially if you want to do a little additional pre-sell.

Thanks to both of you for the help,
Bill

I think enough is to add one more[*] tag to this code, example:
Code:
<div id="navigation">
<ul>
<li class="selected">> Home[*]<?php wp_list_pages('sort_column=menu_order&depth=1&titl e_li='); ?>[*] Anchor Text[/list]
Hi Bill,
In the back-end of your WP site, Under Presentation, Theme Editor, go to Header php and scroll down until you find

<div id="navigation">
<ul>
<li class="selected">> Home[*]<?php wp_list_pages('sort_column=menu_order&depth=1&titl e_li='); ?>[/list]Where it says "Home" make that "Your Niche Home" or whatever you want the title to be.
I'm not sure how you would do the other, probably with the href but I haven't delved that far yet.
