 * Hey,
 * i just updated this plugin after a long time and now all the icons i have on 
   my page have a strange link which just says “javascript:;”.
 * When a user clicks a icon, the browser opens a new blank page saying “javascript:;”.
 * Icons are added like this without a link:
 * [su_icon icon=”icon: star” background=”transparent” color=”#EF9D39″ size=”20″
   shape_size=”9″ margin=”0px -15px 0px 0px”][/su_icon]
 * If i add the icons with a link like url=”#” target=”self”, the “javascript:;”
   link will not appear, but i don’t want them to have a link.
 * I also deactivated my caching plugin, to see if it causes the issue, but it doesn’t.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Ficons-have-hrefjavascript-link%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_
