Request: links that are within the forum will open in the same window
 

I am wondering if someone could make a hack that allowed any links that are pointing to my forum will open in the same window, and any links pointing to any other domain to open in a new window..

Please let me know if you need further details..
VB3.0.1

Thanks
Dave

good idea i'd also like this

Yea.. I think allot of people would like this. That's a problem...opening new windows for every link

Youll either need to edit the bbcode functions file OR just make a new tag that does the same.

adding a new bbcode via admincp will not work guaranteed this has been brought up on vbulletin.com forums already

i thought this would get more play.. I would really like to know how to do this.. Anyone got a hack for this? Anyone want to make a hack for this?

How much for someone to make this hack? I would paypal $10.00

any takers? anyone else want to chip in?

Just go through includes/functions_bbcodeparse.php and remove all instances off target="_blank" and target=\"_blank\" and do the same for all the templates and Javascript files.

I am not sure that would work though.

I don't want every link to open in the same window.. just the links pointing to somewhere on my domain. Every other link pointing to somewhere outside my domain should open a new window..

My idea is that users on my forum, going to a link on my forum don't need another window.. they already are on my forum.. but if they see a link to somewhere outside my domain.. i don't want them to leave my site.. so in that case a new window will work best..

I hope this helps..

Thanks

Thanks
