Forum link - target="_blank"

Hello,

I created a forum, with the option forum link. It's a link for another website.
When I click on this link, the other website opens in the current window. However I would like to know how I can get it to open in a new window (i.e. target="_blank")

Thanks for your answer.

It is done by a piece in global.php:

PHP Code:


		
			
// #############################################################################

// Redirect if this forum has a link

// check if this forum is a link to an outside site

if (trim($foruminfo['link']) != '')

{

    // get permission to view forum

    $_permsgetter_ = 'forumdisplay';

    $forumperms = fetch_permissions($forumid);

    if (!($forumperms & $vbulletin->bf_ugp_forumpermissions['canview']))

    {

        print_no_permission();

    }

    exec_header_redirect($foruminfo['link'], true);

}

I don't have time to look for a solution now, but this should get you going.

1 Thing is strange though (a bug??), it is passing a second parameter to exec_header_redirect (true), but this function don't take a second parameter i think.

You would need to completely change the way it works, at the moment it sends an http 301 response back to re-direct the browser to the new location, hence it will not (and cannot) open a new page.

I guess you can make your own function if that is an internal function.

just change it to

PHP Code:


		
			
 link_redirect($foruminfo['link']);

then add this in global

PHP Code:


		
			
function link_redirect($link)

{

   global $foruminfo;



  echo "<a href='$link' target='_blank'>".$foruminfo['name']."</a>";

}

I'm not sure "$foruminfo['name']" is correct.
I'm also not sure if that will work.

This would appear to do it for all of the links, but what if you wanted to select the link target per forum?

As Marco said, this is a piece of code in global.php and not a function;)

And, target="_blank" is no valid attribut in xhtml ;) it's working, but not valid!
