Opening links

Post by BoSoxGal »

Hi, when I open links on other boards they open as a new window - here, it opens the link and Plan B disappears. Is there a way to set that differently within the board? Just curious - thanks!

Good question, it's my day off tomorrow, I'll have a delve in the back room.

Why is it that when Miley Cyrus gets naked and licks a hammer it's 'art' and 'edgy' but when I do it I'm 'drunk' and 'banned from the hardware store'?

LOL!! Ok, I've had a look, and it requires a mod. If it's not too complex I may try it.

Otherwise we'll have to wait for the ever obliging RB to wave her magic wand.

Until then; right click on the link, "open in new tab" is your friend!

Hey, I just noticed today that opening links means getting a new window now - many thanks to whichever of our wonderful admins fixed that feature for us! :D

Yeah the way it used to be was annoying as every time I encountered it I ended up closing out the net.
I expect to go straight to hell...........at least I won't have to spend time making new friends.
