  Users can click on a link on my site. How do I get that site to open in a new tab?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hey, Louise. Very easy. When you add the link to your site, a dialog box will appear that will allow you to edit the URL and Title of the link. Below those two fields, there is a small box with the text “Open link in a new window/tab.” Click the box. Then click “Add Link.” That’s it, and you’re done!

  Cheers,
  -Brian

  Hi Brian,
  This is helpful, thanks! But this is not exactly what I’m trying to do.

  I’m not adding a new Link in the Link section.

  On one of my pages, I have a link to another site. I’ve used the tag. When the user clicks on this, I’d like it to open in a new tab.

  Thank you,
  Lisa

  This is not theme related. Go to http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2013/05/20/creating-html-hyperlinks-links-in-wordpress/ and scroll down to “How to set links to open in a new window”.

  This is the general link model (link to open in a new window):
  <a href="URL HERE" target="_blank">TEXT HERE</a>
