Title: Open external links in new tab Post by: gorandigitalnomad on March 25, 2018, 02:30:43 PM Hello to all,
I have suggestion, if it's possible, to add automatically target="_blank" to external links posted on forum! I think that is better for user experience, because I need to stay on forum when click on link on some external post links!

It has been asked and explained multiple times already but I can't give you a link right now, but if you search you will find it quickly.

No. If you want to open a link in a new tab or window, then you should use a browser that allows you to do so. Having new tabs or windows open automatically for everyone would be very annoying. Not everyone wants to end up with a dozen tabs or windows open. I think that is better for user experience, because I need to stay on forum when click on link on some external post links!

Honestly,I'm not very fond of having 100 tabs open.You can always use your mouse-wheel or right-click -open-new-tab option. For "security" reasons NO There you go : Links no longer open in a new window/tab (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1447874.msg14641987#msg14641987)It has been asked and explained multiple times already but I can't give you a link right now, but if you search you will find it quickly.

As suggested, for security purposes, connections can be interfered with for example and in browsers, the state of tabs that are open can be detected by using malicious tracker cookies and can pull a lot of data if that site is still open in the other tab. It can be done anyway when you click on random stuff as they can see where you've just been to in some cases (browser dependent) but it's a bit more difficult to do. And the above link of consideration of 'child' tabs in browsers.

I know for ctrl + left click, but for that you need both hands ;D I also know for right click than choose from context menu open link in new tab, but that is two clicks with one hand :D Title: Re: Open external links in new tab Post by: Blue Tyrant on March 26, 2018, 07:21:36 AM I also know for right click than choose from context menu open link in new tab, but that is two clicks with one hand :D Middle (scroll) button.
