This cool little theme code snippet allows the wordpress navigation to link to a page outside of wordpress. It takes advantage of custom fields for pages. custom-field Just place this code at the top of your themes header.php file

<?php

*/
global $post;
$redirect = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'redirect', true);
if ($redirect)
        wp_redirect($redirect);
?>

Then create a page with the name having the link text you want to appear in the navigation add a custom field to the page called redirect and place the link url into the value field.
