    Hi, I am customizing EXS News theme for my site; it is working well so far and i have been able to make it work that I intend it to. However, I am stuck at one place, which is, the read more link or the link from the heading of a blog on the Archive page is not opening on a new page. It opens in the same page. I want the page to open on a different tab when a user clicks the Read more link. Can you please help? Warm regards, Aravind Anand

    Hello!
    Thanks for using the ExS theme.

    Sorry for delay with answer, there was no e-mail notification for some reason.

    Please try to put following code to the end of your ‘functions.php’ file:

    function exs_read_more_markup_excerpt() {
		global $post;
		$exs_markup = ' <span class="more-tag"><a class="more-link" target="_blank" href="' .
		esc_url( get_permalink( $post->ID ) ) . '">' .
		exs_read_more_inside_link_markup() .
		'</a></span><!-- .more-tag -->';

		return $exs_markup;
	}

    But please note that this is not very good user experience since you stay on the same domain when you clicking on the ‘Read More’ link.
