Edit button & post url open in new tab

When I press the edit button it automatically opens in a new tab. I will edit the post and press "send" and the page will load in that tab while the original tab remains just as it was. 

The same happens if i want to give someone the specific link of a post (so the page loads with on that post/with that post on display). Once i click on the link it opens in a new tab while the original one remains. 

It happens with Chrome -which is the one i normally use- and i've also checked with mozilla and explorer. It happens to other people too and even though its been happening quite a while people started complaining a bit and i get it, it is a bit frustrating. I would appriciate your help. Thank you.

Hi,

Can you provide your forum's url ?

just added it in the first post^

Thanks, When you edit your post then send it does it appear the correct form you've edited ?

Look at the process of changing the font for example.

Here is a random topic.


and here is what happens once i press the edit button:


(it automatically opens the edit format in another tab)



so i change something



it loads and i'm left with both the edited post and the original one





as you can see...

I see, well let's wait for an official staff to see your problem so they could forward it to the technicians if needed.

Thanks^

And as i said, same thing happens when i click on a post's specific url. I could get more screenshots if the staff needs them

Hi @Nemesis of Love,

You have a script installed in JavaScript management that appears to be changing the target attribute of anchors in the postbody.
( Modules > JavaScript codes management )

This is the script :

Code:

$(document).ready(function () {
  $('.postbody a').attr('target', '_blank');
  $('.postbody a[href^="TO LINK TOY FORUM SAS"]').attr('target', '_self')
});

Removing that should solve you problem of new tabs opening.

but the removal of it will not cause any troubles?

As far as I can tell, it's only changing the links in posts so they will open in a new tab. Unless that's what you want, I don't think it will cause you any problems by removing it.

umm yes, ok. and where do i find it to remove it?

Administration Panel > Modules > JavaScript codes management

Click the edit button to modify the script(s). Look for one that is exactly (or similar ) to what I posted above.

ΑΑΑΑΑ thanks so much!! i fixed it. i had never used that page myself and now that i found the code i applied it only to the portal (it was placed in all the pages and thats why we had the problem)

thanks again.

You're welcome ^^
