Add home/index link in sidebar above TOC in readtheorg theme?

[orialb]

First of all I wanted to say thanks for making these great themes! I just recently discovered this and it seems to fit perfectly to my workflow for maintaining research notes using org mode, so thanks a lot!

As for the request/question:
I was wondering if it is possible to add a link above the table of contents in readtheorg which points to an index org file or whatever the user chooses as home as is common with read-the-docs sites (e.g. in http://www.juliaopt.org/JuMP.jl/0.18/ or many others).
Currently when I specify the option HTML_LINK_HOME in an org file it just adds the home link at the left upper corner of the page, as in the default org html export theme.

I can help implementing this if it is not currently possible, but my web dev knowledge is very limited so if someone is willing to provide some guidance that would be helpful.

Hello, and thanks for your nice comments.
As I'm currently missing time, and as this would be a good addition, yes, I'd be grateful if you could come with something… Thanks!

understood. I'm also short on time at the moment, and in the meantime I realized that HTML export of org notes is actually not so suitable for me ,mainly because my collaborators are used to PDF files. Maybe in the future I decide to give HTML another try, then I will have a look at this issue again! thanks again for your work on these themes!
