Hi:
If you use the link capsule can you make the link open in a new window? I see that you can do this if you ad a link to text. On another note, try writing link capsule a few times and see how your fingers want to type kink ;-). Well maybe it's just my fingers!
Thanks,
GG
Are you asking if you can do this or not? If so, then yes, you can. Just click on advanced then click 'open in new window'.
I always set a link to open a new window. If that is what you were asking, I hope it was the answer you needed
I agree. You can have a link in a text capsule open in a new browser window, but I can't figure out how to do it in a links capsule either.
Someone please tell us how. Step by step would help tremendously.
Anyone home????????????
Ok, so you highlet the text you want to make the link.
click the silver link button.
Add your link destination.
Under that is something like this
Quick Link to Your Hub
-- None selected --How to be a SuccessHow to Do Nothing and Make MoneyUsb sticksWeb Hosting and Free Domain
show advanced options
>> choose show advanced options
then click
target
open link in new window
And you are done.
Hope this helps.
If the link capsule does in fact not have an easy setting for "open in a new window"
You can just adjust your link code following traditional html rules to do such
< A HREF="link.html" TARGET="_blank" >
the extra spaces at the beginning and end need to be taken out
just add a space then the target info at the end of your link
Thanks Sunforged. But we can't edit the html in a links capsule and there is no option (that I can find, anyway) to do it. Actually, that's why I generally don't use link capsules.
its not an html edit - when you insert your link you just include the target attribute - I do it all the time - its teh same as adding your tracker to a url
try it

Is it possible to add a feature to links within text and to the photos to opt to have the link open in a new window? This would allow the reader to stay on the original page. Bounce rates rise every time someone leaves a page before reading the entire article, for whatever reason. If relevant links...

I really liked the links capsule until I clicked on one to test it and figured out that it opened in the same window. Is it possible to make it an option to open a new window like when you are adding links within the text.

A reader noted that he would have liked to see the links in my posts open in a new tab/window so that he could easily look at and reference multiple articles at the same time. I don't think this is necessary on all links, of course. But I do think that especially on links that go away from...

I am almost ready to publish a new article, and I want to add two Amazon Capsules. I know how to do it the old way. But I saw on lobobrandon and a few other's hubs a different way. There is just an orange "A" and what looks like a hyperlink, and when clicked, it takes the reader right to...
