    Wordpress Author Link Open in New Window

    September 15, 2009

    Very frustrating the default Wordpress code allows Author links (found in Comments for example) to open in the same window. To change this open up the ../wp-includes/comment-template.php file and find the following:
    $return = "<a href='$url' rel='external nofollow'>$author</a>";
    And add
    target='_blank'

    to the end. That is all. Now viewers will be able view the Author links while staying on your website.
