WordPress Tutorial - Howto Make a "Back to Top" of Page Link

This Beginner-level WordPress Tutorial shows how to make a "Back to Top" link that you can insert at the bottom of a Page or Post - or in the middle of a long Page or Post - that takes you back to the top of the page when you click on it. This tutorial shows the easy way to create a "Back to Top" link. There is an advanced way that is covered in a separate tutorial. The advanced way takes you to the top of the page faster than the easy way because it works without reloading (refreshing) the page. But the advanced method involves adding a bit of HTML to the header.php text file in the WordPress theme, so you cannot use the advanced method on wordpress.com sites.

@w4rdriver - Fair enough. Sorry for the trouble. The point was not to show how a "back to top" button works; it was to show how to make one yourself. The version of WordPress isn't an issue since the technique is the same in any case.

Still, if you think it should be taken down, and others think so too, I'll consider it. I don't see many others available. Maybe you or @MsKunstler should make one. :)

Not only would i remove this due to it being an old barely recognizable version of wordpress.. but also because there is 6 minutes out of 7..showing how a back to top button works! Most people getting this far know how to click a button.
