[Support request] Open lightweight social icon in new tab and make nofollow

[Daniel]

Hi team,

How do I make the lightweight social icons open in a new tab and also make them nofollow links?

Thanks!

Hi Daniel,

You can use the lsi_icon_rel_attribute filter for this – https://github.com/tomusborne/lightweight-social-icons/blob/8688a7113d61607cfde6d664c4960df30a884cf2/lightweight-social-icons.php#L95

It should already have nofollow by default. You can add the rest of the attributes you want with PHP.

Example:

add_filter( 'lsi_icon_rel_attribute', function() {
    return 'rel=nofollow  target="_blank"';
} );

Here’s how to add PHP – https://docs.generatepress.com/article/adding-php/

Let us know if you need further clarification. 🙂
