  Hello,

  I just created a forum using forumotion. I created a custom link button at the top of my blog entitled “forum”, which takes viewers directly to the forum I created. However, I need this to open in a new browser window so people are not taken completely away from my worpress blog when they visit the forum. How do I get this to open in a new window?

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

  Not possible. If you want it to open in a new browser window, you’ve got to put the link in the sidebar, not the custom menu.
