External URL to open on a new window/tab

[yzzabel]

Hi All!

How do I make the external URL to open on a new window?

I'm using the URLs with http:// as suggested in a previous post but it still doesn't open on a new window.

I also checked the demo site and the same result also. The link opens on the same window.

Thanks,
Yzzabel

You have to add "target="_blank" in every links but this is not a graphical interface options. You Have to modify the code in many places.

Hi Federica,

Thank you very much for your response. Happy to know that this could be done.

We are currently evaluating your component if it will satisfy our requirement. Once we decide to use the component officially, we will give a donation. We would like to know if you will help us solve this feature that I asked once we have given the donation.

Personally, I am impressed with the support you give to the users. You give the solution so that others can solve the same issue on their own. We had a bad experience before with a different component. Every time we have a problem, they ask for an admin access and solve it themselves without telling the users what they did. The problem with this, is that whenever I reinstall Joomla, I will encounter the same problems again so I have to contact them again.

Anyways, we just want to say that we greatly appreciate your component. I hope you will keep improving the component and develop another useful component.

Thanks,
Yzzabel

Hi yzzabel,
I will add "target="_blank" in the next release.

If Abook works fine for you remember to write a review in joomla.org, I will appreciate it so much
