By default, WordPress RSS widget doesn’t open new window when user click on the link. I’ve been searching for the solution for quite a while and most of the solution refer to editing the wordpress core file (wp-includes/default-widgets.php). Editing core file are not a permanent solution, whenever there is wordpress update, it will write off your modification. At the end, i decided to use jQuery to solve the problem.
To open WordPress rss link in new window, follow the steps below:-
Advertisements
- Login to your WordPress admin panel, Appearance -> Editor
- Click on for header.php at the right sidebar
- Add the content below between the head tag
12345<script type="text/javascript">jQuery('a.rsswidget').click(function() {jQuery(this).attr('target', '_blank');});</script>
* make sure you have jquery loaded - Once done, update the file and you may refresh your front page.
- Now you may click on rss link and it should be open in new window!
