  I’ve added a URL link to an image widget so that if you click the image it takes you through to their website. However, I want the linked web page to open in a new page but there is no option to do this. Is it possible to write this into css?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hey there!

  While this cannot be done with the image widget, you can accomplish this by using a text widget instead.

  I took the liberty of adjusting the bottom widget in your sidebar (that connects to http://www.acmac.net). Notice that I added target=”new” into the code, next to linked URL. That is what opens the URL in a new tab.

  You can recreate what I’ve done on the image/button above. First, install a Text widget into your sidebar, and then use my code as an example to make your button work properly.

  I hope this helps! If you have any other concerns, drop me a note. Thanks much!
