NOTE: The "Custom Admin Bar" plugin is not available in the drop-down menu of plugins to select for this topic.
Ideally, this is a feature request: Change the default URL for the Entry Title text or graphic in the Custom Admin Bar to the home page of the primary site. Or better yet, provide an admin field for assigning a link.
Example: The edublogs logo in this screenshot should link to the edublogs homepage (or link assigned via admin field) instead of reloading the current page. Optionally, clicking it should do nothing at all. http://premium.wpmudev.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/adminbar.png
In the meantime, how might one change the link for the graphic or text assigned as the Entry Title?

You're right, the Custom Admin Bar isn't available as an associated project here in the forums. I'll mention that to the web developers over here.
And definitely sounds like a good idea to be able to customize that entry link. Looking through the code, I couldn't really see where a link could be hard-coded.
Just checking if it was eventually resolved in another thread? Or by yourself separately to us? Or by us over email with you? Or using our live support?
If so, no need to reply, that's great news.
If not, could you let us know by re-opening this topic, and we'll get onto it and helping you out asap!
I hard-coded that change in bp-core-adminbar. Unfortunately, I have to re-code it every time there's an update. It would be nice if I could do it in bp-custom but I don't think it works there.
In the latest plugin release (v1.2, just released) we included such a feature - you can choose among preset options or enter your own URL to be used as the root item URL.

Hi jcnjr,

I'll ask the developer how that might be done.
Cheers,

Thanks for the tip, but we don't run BuddyPress.

Hiya,
Okay - I'll move this into feature requests and ping the developer for consideration in a future release.
Thanks!

You can still hard-code it in the adminbar file for your theme.
