How do I add “Sign up”/”Register” button to sidebar?

I tried using:
<input type="button" id="sign_up" value="Create an Account!"
onClick=”window.location=’/register'”>

but it took me to a missing page….

Any help here?

(Also, I want to use an image as a button and then open up the sign-up).

Thanks!

`<a class="button" href="”>Sign up`

If you want an image as background change class name and add your own CSS styles

Make sure you have turned on registration in WordPress.

if you’re on single WordPress, navigate to “Settings > General” and check “Anyone can register”:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Settings_General_SubPanel

If you’re on WP multisite, navigate to “Super Admin > Options” and under “Allow new registrations”, make sure registration is not disabled.

Then, in your sidebar, use “ to get the signup url.

probably the right way to do that is turn registration off in the general wordpress settings.
