I'm trying to make every attachment link open in a new tab/window but checking the 'Open link in a new tab' checkbox in the post editor or adding target="_blank" manually doesn't seem to work. Links always open in the same window. According to this topic the editor is stripping the target attribute. Any ideas on how I can get this to work? Thanks |

Presuming you don't have a blank install have you tried disabling all your active plugins to see if it might be a conflict? If you can set the links to open in a new window when no plugins are active then activate one plugin at a time to figure out the culprit. Also check if your plugins, themes, wordpress are in need of updates. Don't forget to backup first. |

Be wary with the thread you referenced as it is over 6 years old! WordPress has changed significantly since then! In addition to what the previous answered suggested, also check your browser to ensure that you can open up in new tabs/windows. Will this happen on another site? You may have hit some setting that always opens up a new window in the current window (i.e., the browser is overriding the attribute). |
