    • Help with opening links in new window

    Posted by Nektarios posts: 4 Greece

    Hello everybody … I hope someone can help with this one …

    I use trackerfilter or plugin list to collect some results that meet some conditions … these results are displayed in a table and basically they are the users that meet some criteria (trackers) …
    After the search is done and I have the users that meet the criteria in a table, I want to see more details for each user so I wrote showlinks=”y” to open a template for more details …
    The problem is that when I hit the user’s link the template is opening on the same browser window … I want the links on the results table to open in a new window or a popup box …

    (I made it with the developers tools by adding target=_blank on the link but I cannot find the php file to actually add the code)

    Any clues ???

    P.S. in a plugin list you would do something like:

    Copy to clipboard
    {FORMAT(name="link")}[item{display name="object_id"}|{display name="title"}|_blank]{FORMAT}

    Thank you for your time Jonny!
    The first comment I don't know hou to apply it because the links are results of a trackerfilter/plugin list, that are displayed in a table so i cannot write some code there ...

    I tried your second suggestion with plugin list ... but didn't work ...
    In my case the tracker permanent name (which i want to make it a link that opens in a new window) is "registrationemail_2678" ... so following your suggestion i wrote:

    Copy to clipboard
    {FORMAT(name="registrationemail_2678")}[item{display name="object_id"}|{display name="tracker_field_registrationemail_2678"}|_blank]{FORMAT}


    Also tried the following using "target" instead "_blank" ... still with no luck ...

    Copy to clipboard
    {FORMAT(name="registrationemail_2678")}[item{display name="object_id"}|{display name="tracker_field_registrationemail_2678"}|target]{FORMAT}


    The link is opening but in the same window ...
    (The "open external links in new window" is checked)

    Any other ideas???
