Open link in new window

To do this you would have to modify the plugin code. I can give you pointers on how to do this if you feel comfortable with that.

I am capable of cutting and pasting php if you tell me where it needs to go.

In the file called visual-recipe-index/includes/RecipeIndexView.php, edit the function called “private function ri_get_image”.

Modify the last line of that function to add target='_blank' within the href tag.

I should also note that I can’t help you if you modify code and it breaks your site in any way. I hope that helps.

This is the function I’ve got:

}
private function ri_get_image($single){
		$ri_img = '';
  		ob_start();
  		ob_end_clean();
		if(get_ri_option('image_source')=='featured'){
			if (has_post_thumbnail($single->ID )){
				$image = wp_get_attachment_image_src(get_post_thumbnail_id( $single->ID ), 'single-post-thumbnail' );
				$ri_img = $image[0];
			}
			else {
				$output = preg_match_all('/<img.+src=[\'"]([^\'"]+)[\'"].*>/i', $single->post_content, $matches);
 				$ri_img = $matches [1] [0];
			}
		}
		else {
 			$output = preg_match_all('/<img.+src=[\'"]([^\'"]+)[\'"].*>/i', $single->post_content, $matches);
 			$ri_img = $matches [1] [0];
		}

  		if(empty($ri_img)){ //Defines a default image
    			$ri_img = get_ri_option('custom_image');
		}

		$size=array();
		$size=$this->ri_get_size();

			if((!is_numeric($this->params['quality']))||(int)$this->params['quality']>100)
				$this->params['quality']='75';
		//uses TimThumb to generate thumbnails on the fly
		$ri_url = plugin_dir_url(__FILE__);
		$returnlink = ($this->params['lightbox'])? ('"'.$ri_url.'RecipeIndexPost.php?ID='.$single->ID.'" class="ripost"') : ('"'.get_permalink($single->ID)).'"';
		return '<a href='.$returnlink.'><img src="'.$ri_url.'timthumb.php?src='.urlencode($ri_img).'&h='.$size[1].'&w='.$size[0].'&zc=1&q='.$this->params['quality'].'" alt="'.$single->post_title.'" title="'.$single->post_title.'"/></a>';

Can you show where I’d add and how?
