This could really apply to Drupal 6 or 7, but I'm primarily interested in Drupal 7, as I'm working on building new versions of D6 sites for D7.

Please forgive me if I did not search correctly to find an answer, because it seems to me it ought ot be pretty straight forward.

Is there some way to add links to the Slogan section of the site? I remember that when I set the slogan in sites so far, there is no way to have links there, rather just plain text. I would imagine that I could do it in the code that builds the page itself, but I've no idea, as I've not yet tried that far.. still afriad to just go picking random files to dig in.

Can anyone offer a solution - either an existing module that offers better control in that area, or tell me which file(s) I would need to manually edit to add this feature?

Thanks for any suggestions, references, etc.

If you need to add just static links to the site slogan , it should be easy.
You can just go to the site information page in your drupal ( /admin/config/system/site-information )
and give the links in the field provided for site slogan.This should do it..

I cannot believe I didn't try using the actual tags in the past. I guess I just assumed that if it did not work with a web address in that field, then it just wouldn't work, b/c in other fields on the same page, Drupal took care of the html.

Thanks a BUNCH for pointing out the simple. :0)

And by the way, for reference, in case anyone tries to figure out why they get an error message if they happen to try the examples... the Drupal link is incorrect, should just be

     <a href="http://drupal.org">Drupal</a>
     without the www
when you put the www into a web browser, it'll normally fix it for you, but the link method in the Slogan field apparently does not auto-fix the same.

I am just now trying to do the same thing with Drupal 7, and there appears to be a text field limit too short to add the links. Any new ideas?
