Want to open a link in a new browser tab

[Stefan Fuhrmann]

Hello,

I want to link a new page in my conflúence but the new page should open in a new browser tab?

Hi Stefan - welcome to this wonderful community

if you want all hyperlinks to be opened in a new browser tab you can do this:

• go to Admin -> Costum html
• In the At end of the HEAD field insert this:
  

  <script>
  jQuery(document).ready(function() {
  jQuery(".external-link").attr("target", "_blank");
  });
  </script>

• also see documentation

Worked perfect for me!

Hi @Stefan Fuhrmann - do you know if html-macro is enabled in your system? If so you could put the link in the macro like this

<a href="http://www.xxx.de" target="_blank"> Link </a>

Thanks for answering Fabienne,

No, don't seem so.

Hi @Stefan Fuhrmann  - damn I can't think of another solution. I see you're using HideElements :) Love this one

Maybe you can ask your admin to enable html macro or costum html for your space. Shouldn't be too hard ;)

Hi @Stefan Fuhrmann -

Have you reviewed the option provided on this Atlassian KB page for forcing links to open in a new window? Here is a Resolved ticket with Atlassian that you may be interested in reviewing. This is an option if you were to be an Admin.

Also, would you be open to trying an add-on here?

Thanks
