Hello, I want to be certain that users never add a link in a forum that does not open in another tab. It seems this is not possible with the settings available (unless I missed it)? Please let me know if that is the case. If so, then my options would be to replace the current wysiwyg editor with a different one or ask my developer to make the changes to the links on the backend.

Thanks for your help!

You can't replace the html editor (Tinymce) with something else.

Hi, I did find some good ones out there with excellent API documentation. I don't foresee any issues with replacing it within this plugin. Please let me know if that is not the case.

Not sure i understand what API is needed. Force all links to open to a new tab and that's it. Unless i didn't not understood your question right.

What plugin is this?

Hello, I want to be certain that users never add a link in a forum that does not open in another tab.

Could you please explain it simpler? So you want all URLs to be opened in a new tab? At this moment all external URLs are opened in new tab, only internal (URLs within your site) are opened in the same tab.

In case you want to say thank you !)
We'd really appreciate and be thankful if you leave a good review on plugin page. This is the best way to say thank you to this project and support team.

@robert Hi Robert, yes, I just want all URL’s to open a new tab. I don’t want any direct linking from the site (if it’s a link to my site that is fine). However, when a user clicks to add a link, they get to choose if they want the link to open in a new tab or not (option for target - new window). I just want to default to a new window (target=“_blank”) so that users cannot choose. Thanks!

@mpearson65,

You can hide that checkbox (Open in a new tab) using CSS. Insert this CSS code in Dashboard > Forums > Settings > Styles > Custom CSS Code textarea, save it, delete all caches, go to forum front-end and press Ctrl+F5:

.mce-container-body.mce-abs-layout .mce-checkbox.mce-abs-layout-item.mce-last.mce-checked{
     display:none!important;
}

In case you want to say thank you !)
