wordpress中的代码文件更改不会出现在网站上

Question

I'm working on a new design for my website with a wordpress theme called Bello by Wegraphics.

The social media links don't open in a new tab, so I went into index.php and added target="_blank" to the links for the links, but even after an out-of-cache refresh on the page, the links still open in the current tab...

Social media links are managed within the theme options in that they are added/not added to the markup depending on whether or not a user/page name is specified for the social media platform.

Earlier I had a similar problem with the site footer where I actually had to manually specify the footer text in the theme options because my changes to the code file weren't being applied so I'm sure the theme options have something to do with it, but its beyond me how to get around it...

The URL in question here is blog.loganyoung.za.net

What I'd like to know is how I can get my changes to the code files to actually apply on the site when the features are handled by the theme.

If anyone can help me at all, I'd greatly appreciate it.

The problem was not in the index.php file as I had expected.

I had to change the links in the php code in both the page template(page.php) and the single post(single.php) files.

I simply added in the target attribute without modifying the php code.
