The code in this tutorial enables you to change all the links generated by the Genesis Featured Page widgets so they all open in a new widow on click.
The links which now open in a new window are:
- The featured image
- The entry title
- The more link
Here’s the demo video:
Demo Video
The demo video shows how the code, once added to your child theme, makes all the links generated by the Genesis featured page widget, open in a new window as opposed to the default where the links open in the same window.
This tutorial has been written about on the following question from a member of the Genesis community.
I’m using the Elegance theme. The homepage makes use of 2 widget areas that contain a Genesis Featured Page widget (in the demo, these link to the “about” and “portfolio” pages).
Is there any way I can configure the featured page widget to get the links to open in a new window?
Here’s the code for logged in members:
Hi Brad,
Can I use this same code for the Featured Widget Amplified plugin? Or can you tell me what I would change in order to get it to work with that plugin?
Thanks!
Susan
