Opening links in a new window


20 May 2016, 14:10

Hello,

Opening links in a new window seems to have been removed from Mahara. Any idea on when this will be coming back?

 I'm running Mahara 15.04.6  

Thanks,
Tim

Hi Timothy

We've had to remove the opening of links in a new window due to underlying security concerns with browsers and how the handle opening of content in new windows

See https://bugs.launchpad.net/mahara/+bug/1558361

So unfortunately we can not add this functionality back until browsers themselves come up with a safer way of allowing content to be opened in a new window.

Cheers

Robert
