Anyone knows how to change the blog link to load a new page and not on the side? I want my users to go directly to my blog frontpage when they click on the blog icon
Hello Robert,

You would need to edit the file /components/com_easyblog/themes/dashboard/system/dashboard.toolbar.php and locate the codes below,


<a href="<?php echo EasyBlogRouter::_( 'index.php?option=com_easyblog&view=latest' );?>">
<i><?php echo JText::_( 'COM_EASYBLOG_BACK_TO_BLOGS' ); ?></i>
</a>


Replace it with,


<a href="<?php echo EasyBlogRouter::_( 'index.php?option=com_easyblog&view=latest' );?>" target="_blank">
<i><?php echo JText::_( 'COM_EASYBLOG_BACK_TO_BLOGS' ); ?></i>
</a>

Hello Robert,

Ah, I thought you were referring to the toolbar in EasyBlog. Unfortunately right now this is not possible If you alter this, then all links would open in a new window.

This was must have for my site which I desperately need. I hope you can add an option to open a new link in a new window. Thanks again Mark.

Hi Robert,
Is this theme you are using a custom made theme?
I was wondering how you get the profile img to show up on the LIKES.

Thanks
