How to make forum links open in a new window?

[willianlima83]

Hi
When my users click in any links on forum, activity, or other content on groups, the link is opened in the same window and it’s not good because it is forcing my user to leave my site.
There some solution to make forum links opening in a new window?
I think this is a good function to include on next version.

Hi,
Try adding this to your sweetdate-child/functions.php

COPY CODE

function autoblank($text) {
	$return = str_replace('<a', '<a target="_blank"', $text);
	return $return;
}
add_filter('the_content', 'autoblank');

Hi
This code is not working… 🙁
The forum links is opening in the same window still…

And works on normal posts? It that is the case then bbpress probably uses another filter for the content. Try their documentation or support

No problem man… I thought it was simple to do..
but I really think is better the users have not to leave our site when clicks on link posted on forum or activity…

Thanks..

It will work only for content added to a post/page from the editor.
