  When adding links to the Blogroll, how do we get that link to open in a new window? In the FAQs, it says that we’ll be asked when we add the link, but this does not seem to work for me. Many thanks in advance!

  Thanks to sulz–I found the answer to this in another question to which s/he responded. In Blogroll, go to editing area of the blog link and make sure that “none” is selected in the Target area. Again, thanks!

  The forum search box is your friend. You could have easily found your answer there. https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic.php?id=9152&page&replies=5#post-62650
  Please also note that this is a bad practice that is not well received by many bloggers.

  cmohs: actually, it’s select ‘_blank’. ;) selecting ‘none’ will not open a new window but load the link from the same browser/tab. and of course also take note of timethief’s disclaimer.
