There's really no mystery/special workaround to link to Facebook pages from DW...

1. Go to your Facebook page from your computer's browser (do not log into Facebook, log out if you are)
2. Copy the entire address in the browser's location bar
3. In DW's Design View (and/or Live View in later versions) click the image you want to use as a link
4. Paste the address into the Link field of the Properties window and hit Enter/Return
5. Save and upload your page

That's really all there is to it.

In addition to what Jon said about linking to FB public pages, if something in your site doesn't work as expected, check your code for errors.   Go to Window > Results > Validation, check document.

Thanks Nancy. I'm not overthinking this, however, I need the link to be from an image to my Facebook Business Page and I tried to use the Hyperlink feature in Dreamweaver but it did not work.

    Thanks to everyone for your suggestions. I was logged into Facebook and when I logged out and did what Jon said, it worked. All of you are amazing! Thanks again.

    Don't overthink this.  Simply place a text link anywhere on your site that leads to your FB  URL.

     

    <a href="https://your_facebook_page.com">Link to Facebook</a>
