  My social media icons when clicked will not open in a new window and I do not see an option to select that.

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

  Hi tprefountain!

  It looks like you are using the Twenty Seventeen theme.

  Please try clicking into Customize -> Menus -> Social -> From here click on each social media account and check the box titled Open link in new tab and then -> Save & Publish.

  Give that a try and let me know if you have any questions at all.

  I hope this helps!

  I followed your steps and under each platform it has the URL & Navigatiin Label and the option link to remove

  Please try going into Menus again and on right of the word ‘Menus’ (at the top) there is a small gear icon for settings. Click on the gear and check the box for Link Target.

  Once this has been done go back into your social menu and see if you now have the option to check the box for Open link in new tab within each social media account.

  Let me know if that works!
