The External Links module is a very simple approach to adding icons to links
|
|
to external websites or e-mail addresses. It is a JavaScript-based
|
|
implementation, so the icons are only shown to users that have JavaScript
|
|
enabled.

Install
|
|
-------
|
|
Simply install External Links like you would install any other module.
|
|
|
|
1) Copy the extlink folder in the modules folder in your Drupal docroot.
|
|
|
|
2) Enable the module using Manage -> Extend (/admin/modules).
|
|
|
|
3) No additional configuration is necessary though you may fine-tune settings at
|
|
Manage -> Configuration -> External Links (/admin/config/user-interface/extlink).

A note about the CSS
|
|
--------------------
|
|
This module adds a CSS file that is only a few lines in length. You may choose
|
|
to move this CSS to your theme to prevent the file from needing to be loaded
|
|
separately. To do this:
|
|
|
|
1) Open the .info.yml file for your theme and add those lines of code to prevent
|
|
the extlink.css file from loading:
|
|
|
|
stylesheets-remove:
|
|
- extlink.css
|
|
|
|
2) Open the extlink.css file within the extlink directory and copy all the code
|
|
from the file into your theme's style.css file.
|
|
3) Copy the extlink.png and mailto.png files to your theme's directory.
|
|
|
|
Note that you DO NOT need to make an extlink.css file. Specifying the file in the
|
|
.info.yml file is enough to tell Drupal not to load the original file.
