How to open affiliate links in new window?

[cambeetle]

Hi,

Could you tell me if it’s possible to have the affiliate link on product pages open in a new window? If it’s not a built in function, could you let me know what file needs to be tweaked in order to do so?

Thanks!

Hi there,

Edit /woocommerce/single-product/add-to-cart/external.php line 15 to:

<p class="cart"><a href="<?php echo esc_url( $product_url ); ?>" rel="nofollow" class="single_add_to_cart_button button alt" target="_blank"><?php echo apply_filters('single_add_to_cart_text', $button_text, 'external'); ?></a><?php echo sf_wishlist_button(); ?></p>

Hope that helps.

Hey Cam,

What plugin do you use for affiliate products? I’m interested in doing this too?

Hi

It is built in with WooCommerce, set the product type as an affiliate product

Hey Kyle, greatly appreciated.

Is it possible to change the hyperlink to go to the external link rather than product info page?

OR

Can I change the featured image to hyperlink to the external link.

You would have to install the ‘page links to’ plugin and forward the product page to the external product
