DaveStroem Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 When I click on a link, it opens in in the current window. Is there a way to set it so it opens in a new tab? I know that I can R-click and open it in a new tab, but I often forget to do that. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 The old board (before software revisions) used to do that...it was much more convenient. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rsipus13 Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 you could use the scroll thing in the middle of the mouse and it will put it in a new tab Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoddaH1994 Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 Yep. I hate the new forum software. Chalk the link thing up with not being able to use active links on the front page. This software is a lot more crash proof, though. I'd rather have that... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 It also seems to do a far better job at keeping out the spammers...I still remember the awful days when porn spammers showed up what seemed like every 20 minutes... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldiesmann Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 Supposedly there's a setting in the admin center somewhere to force external links to open in a new window, but I don't know much about IPB so I'm not sure exactly where it is. I'll spare the technical reasons as to why it no longer works since many here wouldn't understand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
