Projects open in new tab

Hi there, I am trying to make my projects open in a new tab.

I saw this old post but it must be out of date.

https://colorlibsupport.com/t/have-projects-open-in-new-tab/

It says:
To achieve this you need to do some custom coding in the core files
wp-content/themes/illdy/widgets/class-widget-project.php at line 39
There you should add a target="_blank" inside the to look like this:

The problem is that I logged into my hosting and tried to find the file mentioned above but the /widgets folder and the
class-widget-project.php don’t seem to exist.

Could this be different now with an upgraded version of the theme?

Your help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Hi,

Editing core files is not a best solution, try this solution.

  1. Install any plugin that supports adding custom js to the theme, say Custom JS – WordPress plugin | WordPress.org
  2. Add this script,

<script>
jQuery(document).ready(function(){
jQuery(’.widget_illdy_project a’).attr(‘target’, ‘_blank’);
});
</script>

Let us know,

Thanks,
laranz.

Hello,
I am also trying to have my projects open in a new tab. This How-to doesn’t work for me either.

Thanks
