NC for Hire

Wanna know how to make all external links on your Ning open in a new window, everytime?  We'll here's how you do just that.

 

Add this to your custom Code box (if you're Ning Plus or Ning Pro)

 

<script type="text/javascript">
 jQuery(document).ready(function(){
jQuery("a[href*='http://']:not([href*='http://yourdomain.com'])").attr("target","_blank");
jQuery("a[href*='https://']:not([href*='https://yourdomain.com'])").attr("target","_blank");
});

</script>

 

 

Don't forget to change yourdomain.com  with YOURDOMAIN.COM

    Thanks a lot, JFarrow this just may come in handy for something I have in mind.
  • that's a great tip. I use as similar code and works a treat. However, do you think there is a way to "exclude" specific external links? for example, can you force a specific external link to open in the same widow?

     

    thank you!

  • AWESOME!  I have been looking for this solution forever....
  • Hey - you know what I just found out that may be an issue for everyone? Every link will pop open a new window, meaning if a user clicks on a Blog post, or Forum post it opens it in a new window. May not be the best user experience though.

    Any possible fix for this maybe? I dunno!
  • thanks so much!!!!!!!!!!
