External links from an embedded post open in same window

1

For example clicking this link: http://freecodecamp.com opens a new tab (as it should).

But this one doesn’t .

Does anyone else have this problem, or am I the only one?

Yeah, it’s the same for me. I never noticed until now, because I tend to open all links in a new tab as a force of habit.

Are there more people who can check if they have this problem?

Yes, same for me.

If you are not logged in both links open in the same tab.

Glad I am not the only one. Opening in a new tab is a user setting, so logged out it should open in the same tab.

I am logged in, but both open in my current tab.

Personally I prefer a link to open in the current tab 99% of the time. I’ll ctrl-click if I want it to spring to a new tab :slight_smile:

(i.e. I probably changed the settings myself, if that option is available :))

Well you learn something new everyday :slight_smile:

You can also use “scroll wheel” click :slight_smile:
