2 Standard Control Bar
First you need to know how to set up a control bar. From the main menu follow the below path.
Main Menu > Control Bar > Public Links > Create a public link
There are many settings in here that will allow you to customise how the button looks but for this example we only need a few.
Title - This is just a text field, enter the name of the link in this box i.e. Wixi
Address - This is where the link to the page you creating a shortcut for goes i.e. http://www.allnone.ie/wixi/index.php
These are the only settings you need to enter to create a basic control bar link. If you save this and navigate to the main menu you will have a button up in the top left of the screen.
