I am editing this page and I’m trying to create another button to an external link. I thought it would be as easy as copying and pasting the text to create a second button but that kills the entire page. Any suggestions on how I might do this? This link is internally but the second button I need to open an external URL in a new window.
The section of PHP I think I could do this in (below). Is this something that I can do just by editing this page? One button next to the other button that just opens a hyperlink. Any advice or assistance would be very appreciated. It seems so easy but anything I do to that top section of text (editing it) send the entire page into a 404 error.
