    Hi Bill,

    Loving your Progress theme! Any way to have the social media icons in the footer on the main page open in new tabs when clicked?

    Thanks,
    Ashley

    Good morning Ashley,

    You can do that. Here’s how:

    1. Go to the Appearance section and select Edit.
    2. From the list of files on your right, choose footer.php. In that file you’ll see some lines like this that essentially repeat: 
      
<a href="<?php echo of_get_option('flickr',''); ?>">...
    3. Right after each <a add this: 
      
target="_blank"
    4. Update your file

    That should make the links open up in a new page/tab for you. If you have any trouble, let me know.

    Enjoy your Saturday,
    Bill
