Lots of useful info and links shared in this community! When you click a link here, it opens in current tab. Not sure if it drives anyone else nuts but since I keep the community open in a tab all day, I find myself reopening the tab many times each day or using the back button. Can you set the links to open in a new tab?

Yup, this works but it’s still a lot of clicks over time. I think it’s a one checkbox setting for Glide to change it. 😊

Haha! I know there are bigger fish to fry but this literally impacts everyone in the community positively and is a one tick box for Glide team!

I don’t know if it’s the same for anyone else, but I always use the middle click action to open things in a new tab, and this extension to force open it immediately instead of having to click the tab for it to show up.

> New tabs open immediately instead of in the background.

On Windows I use the right click option drop-down.

That and my poor memory is why I have over fifty tabs open all the time. Ha.
