Wow. This is an amazing accessbility and UX enhancement

    II needed a plugin to highlight external links on my site, have a nice appearance, and be accessible and not hinder the user. This plugin is perfect for that purpose.

    I configured it to show an inline icon and a modal dialogue. The dialogue is great because it allows a user to stay on the site if desired and prevents accidental click-throughs. Perhaps in a later version, you can persist a small cookie and add a checkbox to skip the modal (from the user’s perspective).

    The icons on the links look great. I changed mine to a dark background and white foreground, using one of the supplied plugin icons. It looks great on buttons and also regular links.

    I’m pleased that you can enable/disable this for post types. And the domain exclusions are a nice feature.

    I did add some custom CSS as I thought the icon was a little too bunched up.

    body .wzlw-icon {
    	padding: 5px;
    	border-radius: 4px;
    }

    Thanks for the great plugin Ajay.

    Thank you very much for the detailed review.

    I think the cookie is a good idea, but I’ll need to do that carefully as it then goes into cookie plugin, privacy issues, etc.
