Module Description
Overview Link attributes widget provides an additional widget for the link field found in Drupal core.

The widget allows users to set attributes on their link.

In addition the module alters the default menu link content link field to use this widget, allowing menu links to have attributes too

Features Supported attributes include


* id
* class
* name
* target
* rel
* accesskey
* aria-label (since 8.x-1.3)
* title (since 8.x-1.7)
* Linkit support (since 2.1.0) - via a submodule



Should I use the 1.x or 2.x version? New installs should use the 2.x version. Existing sites on the 1.x version are encouraged to update to the 2.x stream. There are no breaking changes, but 2.x splits the automatic use of the widget for menu links into a submodule.

Installation and configuration overview
* Enable the module like normal
* If using the 1️⃣.x branch, It will immediately take effect on menu link content entities.
* If using the 2️⃣.x branch, enable the Link Attributes Menu Link Content sub module and It will immediately take effect on menu link content entities.
* For other link fields, edit the widget using 'Manage form display' and select the 'Link (with attributes)' widget
* Read the documentation for how to modify defaults and add custom attributes.
* Optionally enable the Linkit Attributes sub-module to make an additional Linkit (with Attributes) widget available.

Limitations Note that some menu links are provided by modules. These links do not have a link field, and cannot have attributes added. For example the 'Contact' link provided by the contact module in the footer menu. Only links that are added using menu link content entities have a link field.

For those, just disable the default and add your own using Menu Link Content

Similar modules Whilst these modules have a similar impact on menu links, they don't support the generic link field like Link Attributes does. Using Link attributes means you can leverage this functionality for link fields on any entity type, not just menu links.
