After static was updated to latest toolkit, the external link styles were removed but some extra styles still remained in Whitehall, breaking the display of external links.

  • Update toolkit to 5.0.0
  • Remove use of mixins no longer provided by toolkit
  • Remove white external link shim
  • Remove white external link images
  • Correct typo in accordion asset

Original PR and discussion:

Guess we want to get rid of

<p>The link will display with an external link symbol.</p>
as well?

Also this block might not be needed?

a[rel="external"]:after {

Apart from that it looks good.

The symbol no longer appears next to the link.

@robinwhittleton Thanks for the review. I've removed the guidance about the icon. The second bit is part of the admin UI and is a different kind of icon/feature which can be left in.
