I wanted to create something very minimal for those who wanted the same social icons I use on my site at http://www.wpexplorer.com.
Thank you for the suggestions. I might consider, but at the moment I don’t intend on updating the plugin. You should be able to alter the output via the filters though.
Hi AJ…
How long would that take you? 30 seconds?
foreach( $links as $s=>$link ) {
printf( $this->before_item, esc_attr( $s ) );
echo '<a href="' . $link . '" target="_blank" . title="' . $this-
>services[$s] . '"><img src="'. plugins_url( '/images/'. strtolower ($this->services[$s])
.'.png', __FILE__ ) .'" alt="' . $this->services[$s] . '" /></a>';
`
Where do I paste this code? I tired putting it in different Candy editor files and I got fatal errors. Thanks!
Go the the Plugin editor. Select Candy Social Widget from the drop down to choose the correct plugin to edit.
Look for the file named:
candy-social-widget/includes/widget-functions.php
Look for the comment // display the widget in the theme
My code looks identical except for the addition add “target=”_blank”
Mostly I feel AJ should update the plugin. My comment that it would only take 30 seconds was addressed to him.

Bill
The thing is BillRodgers, I can update the plugin surely. But its better to not have them open in a new tab by default. You can easily hit control click or right click open in a new tab. However, if they go to a new tab by default you cant open in a new window.
Ideally having an option to check for opening in a new tab or not would be ideal, this is an update I would consider doing, once I get some free time.
