Links open in new tabs now

Post by bio » Tue Jul 28, 2020 10:38 am

Something that has always bugged me is that external links on the board have always opened in the current tab instead of opening a new one. I hate this kind of navigation because it can make you lose your place (if you don't use the back button). With this in mind, I've set it so that all links now open in a new tab.

If you're one of those people who hates it when the admin makes modifications that fundamentally change how you surf the web, you can opt out by changing your board preferences.

How to Change Your Board Preferences for Dummies:

Click your "Profile" icon and select "User Control Panel"

Then navigate to the "Board Preferences" tab and change "Open External Links in New Window" to "No"

Click "Submit" and relegate yourself to the category of "loser".
