Hi Team,
How can I open 'read more' link in new tab, I modified the following files but after plugin upgrade, I have to re-apply the same change. Is there a better way to handle this?
All links on my website need to open in new tab.
/plugins/gp-premium/blog/functions/generate-blog.php
<a title="%1$s" class="read-more" href="%2$s" aria-label="%4$s" target="_blank">%3$s</a>
Thanks,
Joyce
Hi there,
add this PHP Snippet to your site:
add_filter( 'generate_excerpt_more_output','lh_change_read_more' );
function lh_change_read_more() {
return sprintf( ' ... <a class="read-more" title="%1$s" href="%2$s" target="_blank">%3$s</a>',
the_title_attribute( 'echo=0' ),
esc_url( get_permalink( get_the_ID() ) ),
__( 'Read more', 'generatepress' )
);
}
This article explains adding PHP:
Thanks David, I added it to child theme functions.php and it works fine
Glad to hear that
