Hi all!

Does anyone know if there is the option to use the open link action to open a page in the same tab as current? Trying to get this to work in Glide Pages.

Reading this thread it doesn’t seam possible however checking again in case anything changed :). [Is it possible to open links in the same window with Glide Pages?](https://community.glideapps.com/t/is-it-possible-to-open-links-in-the-same-window-with-glide-pages/45945)

I’m afraid this is still the case.

> When Glide renders the URL on the front end, the “target” part of the element is automatically rendered as “\_blank” (which opens it in a new tab), despite me setting it as “\_self” (open in the same tab).
