dear expert friends

I have an action hook ‘graphene_footer’ where I placed my social media icons (Facebook, Linkedin and Twitter) (http://grupoopus.com/gowp). This is the coding I am using:

<p style="text-align: right;"><img class="aligntop wp-image-421" src="http://grupoopus.com/gowp/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/facebook_48.png" alt="" width="38" height="38" /><a href="http://www.linkedin.com/profile/view?trk=tyah&locale=en_US&id=218582384"><img class="aligntop wp-image-422" src="http://grupoopus.com/gowp/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/linkedin_48.png" alt="" width="38" height="38" /></a><img class="aligntop wp-image-423" src="http://grupoopus.com/gowp/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/twitter_48.png" alt="" width="38" height="38" /></p>

It is important to let you know that only Linkedin is active so far.

I am wondering what should I do in order to open the social link in a new page.

I do not wish to have my customer leaving my page.

Thank you.

hi kenneth

after a few trials I managed to have the code work.

it looks like this:

<p style="text-align: right;"><img class="aligntop wp-image-421" src="http://grupoopus.com/gowp/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/facebook_48.png" alt="" width="38" height="38" /><a href="http://www.linkedin.com/profile/view?trk=tyah&locale=en_US&id=218582384" target="BLANK"><img class="aligntop wp-image-422" src="http://grupoopus.com/gowp/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/linkedin_48.png" alt="" width="38" height="38" /></a><img class="aligntop wp-image-423" src="http://grupoopus.com/gowp/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/twitter_48.png" alt="" width="38" height="38" /></p>

This:

<a href="http://www.linkedin.com/profile/view?trk=tyah&locale=en_US&id=218582384">

So at the end, you want to add the code I gave you, so it looks like this:

<a href="http://www.linkedin.com/profile/view?trk=tyah&locale=en_US&id=218582384" target="blank">

You will need to do that for each anchor tag in your HTML.
